Gimeno Conducts “Emperor”

Massive in scale, sweeping in scope, Beethoven’s “Emperor” Concerto elevated the art form to towering new heights unsurpassed to this day. Plus, be there for the grand unveiling of a brand-new symphony by Spotlight Artist Samy Moussa.

Daniil Trifonov sincerely regrets that due to injury, he must withdraw from his performances on May 25, 27 & 28. The TSO is working on his return in a future season.
“It’s with great sadness I say that I won’t be able to participate in the upcoming concerts with Ivan Fischer and Budapest Festival Orchestra in Budapest and Italy and with Gustavo Gimeno and Toronto Symphony Orchestra in Toronto. I was very much looking forward to these performances, but the condition of my left elbow following the injury sustained back in November requires some extra treatment and rest. I will be very happy to come back fully recovered in the future.” – Daniil Trifonov
We are grateful to Garrick Ohlsson for stepping in to perform Beethoven’s “Emperor” on short notice. We look forward to welcoming him back to Toronto.
