BENJAMIN BRITTEN Four Sea Interludes from “Peter Grimes” JEFFREY NYTCH Symphony No. 1 (“Formations“) WORLD PREMIERE PIOTR TCHAIKOVSKY Piano Concerto No. 1 A musical “surf & turf”—Britten’s colorful seascapes evoke the cold North Atlantic while the world premiere of Boulder composer Jeffrey Nytch’s “Formations” Symphony draws inspiration from Colorado’s geology. It’s ‘rock music’ of a different kind! This world premiere is supported by a partnership with the Geological Society of America and ExxonMobil. After intermission, INON BARNATAN brings his award-winning combination of artistry and virtuosity to Macky’s stage for the first time.
