Sinfonia da Camera principal trombonist Jim Pugh takes center stage for two concerti showcasing his versatility and virtuosity. The Concerto after Mendelssohn for Trombone and Orchestra, by composer-in-residence David Canfield, highlights trombone virtuosity and features quotations from beloved works such as Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto in E Minor and Overture to A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The three movements of Nathaniel Shilkret’s Concerto for Trombone and Orchestra showcase a myriad of musical styles, from lush Romanticism to big band era boogie-woogie. The concert begins with the luminously evocative Serenade for Strings by Edward Elgar in three short movements. Continuing Sinfonia’s multiyear Beethoven cycle, the program concludes with Ludwig van Beethoven’s brilliant and lean Symphony No. 4.
