The Cleveland Orchestra has announced that Music Director Franz Welser-Möst will return to Cleveland earlier than expected to lead an additional subscription week on February 27-28 and March 1. With an improved health condition Welser-Möst is back to the podium for an extended period, which includes the Orchestra’s performances at Carnegie Hall on March 18-19 and culminates in an all-Tchaikovsky program featuring Yuja Wang at Mandel Concert Hall on March 22-23.
Alan Gilbert, who was scheduled to conduct these subscription concerts, has offered to relinquish the week to give his friend Franz Welser-Möst and the Orchestra more time together this season.
