La Jolla Symphony & Chorus's yearlong survey of Stravinsky closes the 2011-2012 season with his most popular work, The Firebird. The concert opens with the premiere of Tintinnabulation by Igor Korneitchouk, professor of music at Mesa College, UCSD music alumnus, and longtime La Jolla Symphony violinist. UCSD faculty pianist Aleck Karis is the featured soloist in Barber's magnificent Piano Concerto, which won the Pulitzer Prize exactly fifty years ago.
