Opening Weekend for the Winston-Salem Symphony: Featuring Pianist Conrad Tao

It's opening weekend for the Winston-Salem Symphony under the baton of Robert Moody. He's celebrating his tenth anniversary leading the orchestra with music by Sergei Prokofiev, Arturo Marquez, and Sergei Rachmaninoff, his Rhapsody on a theme of Paganini. Joining the orchestra will be 20 year old piano sensation Conrad Tao. His playing has been hailed by the New York Times for its “probing intellect and open-hearted vision”. Bob Moody, who first collaborated with him when Conrad was a young teenager, agrees.

This weekend Bob will lead the orchestra's season-opening performances Saturday night September 20^th at 7:30, Sunday at 3:00 and Tuesday at 7:30. Tickets start at 20 bucks.
