Ann Arbor Symphony Orchestra

GRAMMY® Award-nominated composer and bandoneon player JP Jofre stars in this imaginative juxtaposition of contemporary and classic influences. Performing his own concerto for cello and bandoneon with acclaimed soloist Michael Katz, Jofre’s mesmerizing artistry brings new sound worlds to the historic expanses of the Michigan Theater. Guest conductor Joshua Gersen directs music by the “wistfully idiosyncratic and contemplative” composer and multi-instrumentalist Angélica Negrón, before Brahm’s masterful Symphony No. 4 closes the program in a poignant summary of the composer’s worldview and lifetime of achievement.
