Osvaldo Golijov Henry Fogel Consortium Commission (KC Premiere)
Krzysztof Penderecki Viola Concerto
W. A. Mozart Symfonia concertante for Violin, Viola and Orchestra
Ginastera Four Dances from Estancia
A Latin American connection is the thread that runs through this exciting program! Violist Roberto Díaz returns to Kansas City to play Krzyzstof Penderecki's arresting and dramatic viola concerto written to commemorate the bicentennial of the birth of Simón Bolívar. Díaz will also perform the sublime Sinfonia concertante, bursting with musical ideas, emotion and its integrated dialogue between soloists. The music of Argentine composer Osvaldo Golijov fuses elements of the composer's own multicultural background - the sounds of classical, folk and South American street music. The Four Dances from Estancia of Alberto Ginastera are an evocative and lively depiction of a day in the life of the gauchos of Argentina's countryside. Tickets: $58, $55, $45, $35, $25 and $18.
*This concert will be performed at Yardley Hall in The Carlsen Center at Johnson County Community College, College Blvd. and Quivira Road, Overland Park, KS
