In this fascinating concerto written as a gift to pianist Paul Wittgenstein who lost his right arm in WWI, Ravel's ingenious Piano Concert for the Left Hand is written with a one-handed piano part that sounds like it is being played by two hands and also demonstrates his love of jazz. Bruckner's final, unfinished Symphony No. 9 is a richly scored, stirring question for emotional fulfillment. The program, led by CSO Music Director Jean-Marie, will also include Messiaen's Les offrandes oubilees (Forgotten Offerings) and feature guest pianist Benedetto Lupo.

The Columbus Symphony presents Ravel & Bruckner at the Ohio Theatre (39 E. State St.) on Friday and Saturday, January 10 and 11, at 8pm. Tickets start at $25 and can be purchased at the CAPA Ticket Center (39 E. State St.), all Ticketmaster outlets, and www.ticketmaster.com. To purchase tickets by phone, please call (614) 228-8600 or (800) 745-3000. The CAPA Ticket Center will also be open two hours prior to each performance. Young people between the ages of 13-25 may purchase $5 PNC Arts Alive All Access tickets while available. For more information, visit www.GoFor5.com.

The 2013-14 Masterworks Series is made possible through the generous support of season sponsors Anne and Noel Melvin.
