Ax returns for Mozart's engaging Piano Concerto No. 22 in E-flat major. Renowned violinist Nikolaj Znaider makes his PSO conducting debut with music from Wagner's exquisite love story of Tristan und Isolde. Be amused by Elgar's Enigma Variations, a mystery on many levels with its elusive melody that has had audiences guessing for years and the supposed hidden message to a secret lover. Each movement of this celebrated orchestral work portrays a personal friend of Elgar's.http://www.steptoe-johnson.com/events/event/event,2329.aspxFri, 27 Jan 2012 15:33:33 GMThttp://www.steptoe-johnson.com/events/event/event,2326.aspxFri, 27 Jan 2012 15:05:51 GMThttp://www.steptoe-johnson.com/events/event/event,2302.aspxWed, 25 Jan 2012 10:59:21 GMTThursday, March 29th, 2012 8:00am Registration & Breakfast 8:30am Opening Remarks – Dean Frederic White 8:45am Prof. David E.
