PSYO Spring Concert March 1, 3:00 p.m. Soka Performing Arts Center, Aliso Viejo Alejandro Gutiérrez, conductor
VARESE: Tuning Up Cheng Family Foundation Youth Orchestra Concert Series |
 |
The outstanding young musicians of PSYO dive into an afternoon of 20th-century music that ranges from well-known film scores by John Williams (“Jurassic Park”) and James Newton-Howard (“Dinosaur”) to music from the electroacoustic and neoclassical movements, with a little Argentinian flare to wrap it all up. “For me it is very important to expose the youth orchestra to as many varieties of genres, musical styles and different ways of musical expression as possible,” says Gutiérrez. |

PSYWE Spring Concert March 9, 3:00 p.m. Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall Joshua Roach, conductor
SHOSTAKOVICH/HUNSBERGER: Galop from Moscow: Cheryomushki |
|
The talented woodwind, brass and percussion players of PSYWE deliver a program of favorites led by Music Director Roach. First, the lightning-fast tempo of Shostakovich’s “Galop,” followed by Grainger’s light and airy “Handel in the Strand” and Barber’s rousing “Commando March.” Barnes’ Third Symphony is a farewell to the memory of his daughter, with a joyful finale as the composer reflects the blessing of his new baby son. Finally, Mussorgsky’s masterwork: “Pictures at an Exhibition.” |
