Xavier Foley, Double Bass
Giancarlo Castro: Commission and World Premiere
Piazzola (arr. G. Moreira): Four Seasons of Buenos Aires
Schubert: Symphony No. 8, “Unfinished”
R. Strauss: Suite from Der Rosenkavalier
The lyricism of music inspired by dance take center stage in Schubert’s Unfinished Symphony and Strauss’s Rosenkavalier Suite — their rhythms and melodies evoking the opulence of 19th-century Vienna. And Artist-in-Residence Xavier Foley paints musical portraits of Argentina in a new arrangement of Piazzolla’s tango-infused Four Seasons of Buenos Aires.
*The June 1 concert takes place at 2 pm due to the Starlight Parade
