About this Concert

Paul Haas, conductor
Sandeep Das, tabla

Conductor Paul Haas breaks new ground with Dinuk Wijeratne’s Concerto for Tabla, a piece that highlights the “king” of Indian percussion instruments—known for the richness of its timbre and rhythmically complex repertoire unique to the instrument itself. This concerto will be performed by Guggenheim Fellow, Silk Road Ensemble member and Grammy-winner, Sandeep Das! This driving concerto leads to the emotional finale of Tchaikovsky’s fate-filled Fourth Symphony.
