Maria João Pires has graciously agreed to replace Maurizio Pollini, who unfortunately must cancel his appearance due to illness.

Maria João Pires, “one of the most celebrated and loved pianists on the planet” (The Telegraph, London), comes to Carnegie Hall to perform Chopin’s Second Piano Concerto with The Philadelphia Orchestra. Under the direction of Charles Dutoit, the revered ensemble also performs two works written for the theater: the rousing overture to Ruslan and Ludmilla by Russian master Mikhail Glinka and Ravel’s sumptuous ballet score Daphnis et Chloé.
