Masterworks I – Ravel Revelry (Wisconsin Symphony Orchestra)

We kick off our 2026/27 Masterworks season with a program bold and full of personality, as pianist John Novacek returns to play Ravel’s Piano Concerto in G. He will also perform Michael Daugherty’s Le Tombeau de Liberace, a virtuosic, tongue-in-cheek tribute to showmanship. The evening closes with Strauss’s Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme, music brimming with wit and color inspired by Molière’s classic comedy. Join us for an evening of music that’s inviting, vibrant, and meant to be shared with friends.
