Beatles Go Baroque

Hailed by Leonard Bernstein as the “Schuberts of our time”, the Lennon-McCartney songwriting team has captivated generations with their original work. Reset for chamber orchestra by prolific composer Peter Breiner, this collection of Beatles “concertos” was a multi-platinum hit! Join us for the mash-up of the century as MPO performs 18th-century masterpieces such as Vivaldi’s Four Seasons combined with the Beatles’ most timeless melodies such as Hey Jude, Here Comes the Sun and Get Back. Conducted by Naohisa Furusawa.
