SUMMARY:Pablo’s Guitar
DESCRIPTION:This program will take listeners on a tour of melodies hailing from around the world. Bacewicz’s six-minute Overture for Orchestra was composed during the German occupation of Poland and offers an exciting\, perpetually shifting palette of colors. The short duration of this Overture does not keep Bacewicz from demonstrating a litany of orchestral sounds and moods in her composition\, overlooked until recently. Meanwhile\, Spaniard Joaquin Rodrigo’s animated Concierto de Aranjuez features elaborate instrumentation for classical guitar. The piece took its first recorded form as a Braille manuscript carried into Spain by Rodrigo at the outbreak of the Second World War. Fauré’s Pelléas et Mélisande Suite offers a contemplative reprieve in a romantic and tragic orchestral retelling of elicit lovers and their star-crossed fate\, and Alexander Borodin brings the program’s close with his colorful Symphony No. 2\, which evokes the exuberance of Russian folk dances. This concert brings the songs of people across time and space to listeners for an experience full of diverse musical landscapes. \nAnna Sułkowska-Migoń\, conductor \nPablo Sáinz Villegas\, guitar \nBACEWICZ Overture for Orchestra \nRODRIGO Concierto de Aranjuez \nFAURÉ Pelléas et Mélisande Suite \nBORODIN Symphony No. 2 in B minor \nHappens on the following Dates:\nApr 11\, 2026\, 7:30pm to 9:00pm\nApr 12\, 2026\, 2:30pm to 4:00pm

SUMMARY:Mendelssohn and Dvořák
DESCRIPTION:The concert opens with Franco-Brazilian composer Elodie Bouny’s striking homage to the Amazon rainforest and the destruction it has faced in the form of Ignis—meaning “fire.” The piece serves as a contemporary complement to Mendelssohn’s exquisite and romantic Violin Concerto\, which features a turning-point cadenza as a center jewel. Award-winning soloist Amaryn Olmeda brings Mendelssohn’s virtuosic and vivacious melodies to the stage. Countering the sparkling energy of the concerto\, but no less joyful\, Dvořák’s pastoral Symphony No. 8 vividly depicts Czech songs and dances through rich\, pleasing melodies and harmonies. The symphony reflects the composer’s musings on the implications of nature\, as well as his own experience enjoying its benefits. \nRoberto Minczuk\, conductor \nAmaryn Olmeda\, violin \nELODIE BOUNY Ignis \nMENDELSSOHN Violin Concerto in E minor \nDVOŘAK Symphony No. 8 in G major \nHappens on the following Dates:\nApr 24\, 2026\, 10:30am to 12:00pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US & Canada)\nApr 25\, 2026\, 7:30pm to 9:00pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US & Canada)
