About this episode

This episode features Jeffrey Solares and Inna Montesclaros discussing the Manila Symphony Orchestra's upcoming concerts and the music of Brahms.

The Manila Symphony Orchestra’s executive director Jeffrey Solares has a habit of saying "Yes!" to the opportunities Providence sends their way. As a result, the MSO charges out of the gate this new year with two big concerts this January, happening within days of each other — the orchestra's 𝟏𝟎𝟎𝒕𝒉 𝑨𝒏𝒏𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒂𝒓𝒚 𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒄𝒆𝒓𝒕 on January 22, and 𝑳𝒆𝒈𝒂𝒄𝒚 on January 25, featuring pianists Carmencita Sipin-Aspiras and Inna Montesclaros — Inna tackling the formidable 𝘗𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘰 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘰 𝘕𝘰. 2 of Johannes Brahms. This week's MAESTRO FILIPINO with DZFE's Tiffany (complete episode), Jeffrey takes stock of a breathless 99th Season and plans for the centenary season ahead; Inna shares her perspective on the humanity of Brahms' music. *Music features with permission.
