See The Uninhabited Island with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra at Music Hall on April 2 & 3
What music would Louis Langrée have if he was stranded on a desert island? This concert answers that question! Bookended by two very different dances, a foxtrot for orchestra celebrating John Adams’ 80th birthday, written while working on his famous opera Nixon in China, the other a raucous, earthy (peasant-ish) dance from the other side of the planet by Zoltán Kodály. The middle of the program is centered around elegant, sensitive, romantic gestures that can only be achieved by composers Schumann and Haydn.
