Lahav Shani and Alisa Weilerstein
Two brothers vie for the love of a mysterious woman: Maurice Maeterlinck’s drama about jealousy, Pelléas et Mélisande, inspired Schoenberg to write a tone poem in which he sensuously depicts the love triangle. In Prokofiev’s Sinfonia concertante for Cello, we hear music that is both motoric and lyrical at the same time. Alisa Weilerstein plays the demanding solo part, with Lahav Shani conducting.
