A convergence of Baroque elegance, vibrant contemporary rhythms, and romanticism is the focus for the second concert of our Masterworks season. Showcasing eighteenth-century Baroque Italian elegance, Alessandro Scarlatti’s Sinfonie di concerto grosso No. 2 in D opens the second concert in our Masterworks season. Next up is the riotously colorful concerto for violin and orchestra by Arturo Márquez, violin concerto Fandango based on Mariachi music. The orchestra will be joined by violinist Anne Akiko Meyers, who will bring Marquez's composition to life, infusing it with passion and rhythmic energy. Concluding the evening is a rarely performed early work by Camille Saint-Saëns, his Symphony in A major.

Capitol Theatre

Join us for performances featuring talented and passionate musicians from the DMV area. MCYO’s younger ensembles will present hidden gems by Mozart, Chevalier de Saint-George, Tchaikovsky, Gershwin, Romero, and more. The Philharmonic, MCYO's flagship orchestra, performs virtuosic works by Strauss, Sibelius, and Marquez, among others. In collaboration with Site-Specific Dances, the performance culminates in an immersive world premiere of Polina Nazaykinskaya's soul-stirring Fenix. This multidisciplinary work showcases the dramatic landscapes of Sedona, while hoping to impart a sense of great reverence for our precious natural world, its epic scale, and its dynamic geological processes.

Mcyo: Symphonic Interludes

The Music Center at Strathmore

Ô-Celli is a human journey initiated by Sébastien Walnier and Alexandre Beauvoir, who gathered solo cellists from orchestras and chamber musicians, including Jean-Pierre Borboux, the second soloist of the OPRL. Their concerts are invitations to embark on a musical voyage, transcending time and crossing stylistic boundaries. Since 2011, the year of their first concerts, the group of eight musicians from Brussels has held one guiding principle: pleasure! From Gershwin to Piazzolla, through Noben and Bernstein, "in the end, it is always music that prevails" (Michel Legrand).
