Conductor JoAnn Falletta, music director of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra and the Virginia Symphony, returns to lead The Orchestra Now for the third year in a row.
The concert features Holst’s popular suite “The Planets”, which is in turn both devastating and peaceful. Also on the program is Adams’ joyfully exuberant “Short Ride in a Fast Machine” and Pendercki’s dramatic and intense Double Concerto, which will feature Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra concertmaster Dennis Kim and principal cellist Roman Mekinulov.
PROGRAM:
John Adams: Short Ride in a Fast Machine
Krzysztof Penderecki: Double Concerto (Dennis Kim, violin; Roman Mekinulov, cello)
Gustav Holst: The Planets (Bard Festival Chorale)
