Franz Welser-Möst by Roger Mastroianni
Franz Welser-Möst leads the world-class Cleveland Orchestra in a pair of Russian symphonic masterpieces, starting with the folkloric magic of Pétrouchka. Stravinsky’s tragic, direct musical storytelling offers a powerful contrast to Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony, a quintessentially Romantic work that grapples with questions of fate throughout its breathtaking journey from darkness to triumph.
