The Cleveland Orchestra: Santtu-Matias Rouvali - Strauss at Severance Music Center
Strauss brings the drama. Steven Banks brings the saxophone. Saturday gets both.
Santtu-Matias Rouvali conducts The Cleveland Orchestra in Ein Heldenleben, paired with Billy Childs's Diaspora: Concerto for Saxophone featuring Banks. The works give the evening two distinct centers of attention: a sweeping orchestral score and a solo instrument with its own expressive voice.
The Cleveland performance is November 21, 2026, 7:30 PM at Severance Music Center. At Severance, let one work draw you in and the other widen the experience. You can arrive already knowing Strauss and discover Childs, or come for Banks and hear the orchestra in a different light. The live contrast is the point, and the full program gives you a reason to make the evening more than a quick visit to a familiar composition.
Make Saturday a two-work orchestral night. Check tickets for Rouvali Conducts Strauss.
