Pegasus: The Orchestra’s founder, principal conductor, and artistic director, Karén Hakobyan, conducts the 2023-2024 Season’s Finale in a commemoration of Aram Khatchaturian's 120th Anniversary. 

The program opens with Stravinsky’s stunning 8-movement Suite from the Pulcinella Ballet highlighting Pegasus's principals as soloists. The first half concludes with Tchaikovsky’s delightful Variations on a Rococo Theme and features 2007 Tchaikovsky International Competition gold medalist Sergey Antonov (cello) as the soloist.

The second half opens with Beethoven’s colossal Symphony No. 7 and culminates with Khatchaturian's Waltz from the "Masquerade" Suite, a fitting conclusion to the season.

Sergey Antonov is “destined for cello superstardom” - Washington Post, “combining formidable technique and an incredibly warm, penetrating and vibrant tone to a romantic musical sensibility to create music - making of a highest caliber” - Budapest Sun.
