On April 21, 22, and 23, the St. Louis Symphony performs Valentin Silvestrov’s Hymne 2001, Sergey Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 3, and Béla Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra, with pianist Nikolai Lugansky and guest conductor John Storgards. Those who can’t make it to Powell Hall should tune in to St. Louis Public Radio’s live broadcast and web stream at 8:00 p.m. (Central Time) on Saturday, April 22. It should be a tremendous concert, and the Silvestrov piece isn’t programmed all that often, at least not in the United States.
