2. Three Amigos Visit Spain
Three artists showcased in virtuoso works for their instruments. TC Phil’s much beloved Principal Bassist Gary Gatzke, Jr. will wow you with unimagined possibilities on the bass in the Carmen Fantasy–based on themes from Bizet’s opera–this tour de force will knock your socks off with its inventiveness and sheer fun! Dorothy Vogel will perform the exotic Nights in the Gardens of Spain which truly evokes the sights, sounds, and scents of a bygone era. Famed guitarist Matthew Cochran takes the stage for the beloved Concerto de Aranjuez mixing neoclassical sounds of the 18th century with 20th century movie-like lyricism…and in Spain, you are very likely to hear the slow movement of this piece played by a guitarist on a town square!

3. Rhodes + Stagnitta
TC Philharmonic Principal Flutist, Nancy Stagnitta, celebrates her 20th anniversary season with the orchestra. She will join Maestro Rhodes for a concert of masterworks for Flute and Piano. Ms. Stagnitta has been one of the undisputed stars of the orchestra and has been featured in the Mozart Flute and Harp Concerto, and more recently David Amram’s massive Giants of the Night concerto.

4. For The Love Of Nature
A concert for nature and classical music lovers! From Duparc’s gentle soothing Aux Etoilles–to the stars–to Grofe’s Grand Canyon Suite, a constant of school music listening as well as the template for every film score about the American west. Mysterious Mountain by Hovhaness evokes a zen-like sense of calm. He shared, “mountains are symbols…like pyramids…man’s attempt to know God.” This piece holds the distinction of premiering live on TV with none other than Leopoldo Stokowski conducting.
