Fountains & Pines of Rome
The Detroit Symphony Orchestra plays Fountains & Pines of Rome on Friday, October 16, at 10:45 a.m. at Orchestra Hall in Detroit. Jader Bignamini conducts, and Respighi's vivid portraits of Rome close the program. Tickets are available online.
This program is about what a community can be together. DSO Composer-in-Residence Michael Abels's Emerge finds musical meaning in a community reunited. Pianist Alexandra Dariescu brings back Leokadiya Kashperova's cinematic Piano Concerto, long lost to obscurity. Then Respighi puts the full orchestra to work with his radiant evocations of Rome.
Most PVS Classical performances have a 30-minute pre-concert talk one hour before the music, with insight into the composer, the work and the soloist. Seating for the talks is general admission in Orchestra Hall. Friday morning Coffee Concerts don't include one.
You can also watch the Saturday, October 17, 8 p.m. ET concert online, live on the DSO's YouTube and Facebook channels and on Live from Orchestra Hall.
