Grammy nominated conductor Nicholas McGegan brings his artistic approach to the Pasadena Symphony in a concert of Mozart and Beethoven on March 31 at Ambassador Auditorium.

According to broadwayworld.com, the concert features one of Beethoven’s towering achievements – the mighty Symphony No. 3 “Eroica”, plus Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 20, which Beethoven revered above all others for its elegance, beauty and tenderness performed by award winning Armenian pianist Nareh Arghamanyan, as well as Mendelssohn’s Fair Melusina Overture.

Maestro McGegan, known for his infectious and exuberant approach on the podium, has a characteristic unique amongst many of his peers in the classical field: he conducts without a baton.

“The musicians of the Pasadena Symphony are counted among the finest ensemble players to be found anywhere. I am so looking forward to our collaboration,” says McGegan.
