| About this Concert The ESO’s Sunday Showcase has put the spotlight on rising young performers, but this time, it focuses on a noted young composer, and his bold new work. Canadian Brian Current will be the narrator in his own witty and engaging A Symphonic Guide to New Music. Other music for this afternoon comes from two of Hollywood’s legends. Member of the ESO cello section since 1991, Victor Pipkin presents a miniature gem – Erich Wolfgang Korngold’s delightful Cello Concerto. The Orchestra also plays music from the 1950 Billy Wilder melodrama Sunset Boulevard, composed by the great Franz Waxman. Featured Repertoire CURRENT: A Symphonic Guide to New Music KORNGOLD: Cello Concerto WAXMAN: Sunset Boulevard and The Ride of the Cossacks |
Additional Activities Join us at 1:15pm in the Third Level (Upper Circle) Lobby for Sunday Prelude, a casual, informative half-hour examination of the works and composers to be heard that afternoon. Next Sunday Showcase May 27, 2012 Beethoven’s Pastorale Symphony |
