Clearly André Previn was a lot of things. And he made them all sound so easy. As a composer, Previn frequently wrote at the request of friends, or for friends, performers with whom he had developed lasting relationships. His fluency was such that his music could sometimes come across as almost off-the-cuff. Tune in to enjoy a loosey-goosey cello sonata, written for Yo-Yo Ma, and “Diversions,” a concerto (of sorts) for orchestra, composed for the Vienna Philharmonic. Previn goes with the flow, this Sunday at 10 pm.
