Enjoy an afternoon of late Classical symphonic works composed in Paris and the North American premier of Sergii Leontiev's Little Bachiana, written for Baroque Orchestra.
The musical scene in Paris was unlike anywhere else in Europe. The draw of talent to the Paris Conservatory also fostered musical experimentation, exploration, and a stretching of musical idioms. Haydn wrote his Symphony No. 87 only 10 years apart from Reicha's first Symphony in E-flat, but they are tonally so very different.
Winners of the third annual High School Baroque Artist Residency Competition will also perform with the Raleigh Camerata on Haydn's Symphony No. 87 in A major. Hear the delightful sounds of classical flutes, oboes, bassoons, and horns with a full string orchestra
Music to include:
Sergii Leontiev: Little Bachiana, Sarah Lodico Wines, cello soloist
Franz Joseph Haydn: Symphony No. 87 in A major
Anton Reicha: Symphony in E-flat Major, Op. 41
Conductor:
Dr. Rob Strebendt
