The Madison Symphony Orchestra presents: "Beethoven x3"

I’m so excited to be playing a complete Beethoven program with the fabulous Madison Symphony Orchestra, featuring soloists Gil and Orli Shaham and Sterling Elliott!
From the MSO website:
“Great things come in threes, and this performance is no exception, showcasing three of Beethoven’s masterworks, all composed within about three years of each other. We begin with the dramatic Leonore Overture No. 3. Next, we bring an exquisite trio of soloists together: violinist Gil Shaham, his sister, pianist Orli Shaham, and exceptional cellist Sterling Elliott. Together, they play Beethoven’s all-too-infrequently-performed “Triple Concerto.” Beethoven’s miraculous Symphony No. 2, an early but groundbreaking work written at the dawning of his realization that he was going deaf, takes this concert to an emotional close.”

Gil Shaham, Violin

Grossman Ensemble World Premieres II
2025-03-07 19:30 - 21:30 | Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts, Chicago, IL, United States
I’m thrilled to be working with conductor and composer, David Fulmer, once again, with the amazing Grossman Ensemble!

Celebrated for their “precision” (Third Coast Review) and dynamic prowess, the Grossman Ensemble takes the stage under the baton of David Fulmer for four world premieres. Composers John Liberatore, whose music seeks poignancy through levity, Kari Watson, who was recently noted as one of the 23 for ’23: Composers and performers to watch this year (Washington Post), Ryan Garvey, whose music finds opportunities to surprise and confuse the listener, and David Fulmer, called “one of the most important conductors and musicians working with contemporary music” (New York Classical Review), unveil four captivating new works, immersing the audiences in a diverse sonic tapestry.
Followed by an after-party with the artists.

Grossman Ensemble World Premieres III
2025-05-23 19:30 - 21:30 | Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts, Chicago, IL, United States
The Grossman Ensemble loves working with conductor, Tim Weiss. This will be his third visit to work with us and we are thrilled!
Esteemed conductor Tim Weiss returns to lead the Grossman Ensemble for an eagerly anticipated third collaboration. With premieres by composers Christopher Stark, whose music The New York Times has called, “fetching and colorful,” former CSO Mead Composer-in-Residence Elizabeth Ogonek, Paul Novak, a 2023 Barlow Commission recipient whose music has been called “spellbinding” (Washington Post), and “one of the most formidable figures in modern music” (The New Yorker) George Lewis, this program offers a glimpse into the forefront of contemporary classical music.
Followed by an after-party with the artists.
