Music Director candidate Robert Moody, currently Music Director of the Memphis Symphony Orchestra, leads this romping season-opening concert. Arturo Márquez’s Danzón is a vibrant and rhythmic orchestral piece that embodies the essence of Mexican dance and culture. With its infectious melodies and lively rhythms, it invites listeners to sway and embrace the joyous spirit of danzón. In contrast, Édouard Lalo’s Cello Concerto in D minor is a masterpiece of the Romantic era, characterized by its lyrical and passionate melodies performed here by Concert Artist Guild and Sphinx Competition first-prize winner Gabriel Martins. Finally, Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7 is a testament to the composer’s genius, known for its relentless energy and rhythmic drive. Its second movement, the Allegretto, is particularly famous for its haunting beauty and emotional depth, making it one of Beethoven’s most iconic compositions.
