As we feature many American contemporary works this season, we also want to pay respect to one of the great pioneers of American music: Erich Wolfgang Korngold. After he emigrated to the United States in 1934, Korngold became essential in creating the Hollywood sound and wrote scores for 16 movies. We feature his final work, the lush Theme and Variations, as well as his short and energetic Cello Concerto, featuring SPCO Principal Julie Albers. Julie will also perform the beautiful Mariel for cello and orchestra by Argentinian/American composer Osvaldo Golijov. Finally, Johannes Brahms’ wonderful Symphony No.3 concludes the evening.
