Saint-Saëns and Tchaikovsky
Francisco Fullana, the 2022Ð23 TSO Artist in Residence returns to Tucson to perform Saint-Sa‘nsÕ dazzling Third Violin Concerto under the direction of Manuel Hern‡ndez Silva alongside orchestral showpieces by Brahms and Tchaikovsky, and a charming new piece by Israeli Gili Schwarzman. Saint-Sa‘ns was the master of the concerto form, and this piece showcases all the lyrical and technical flair that audiences have come to love, with an added dash of Spanish color, a nod to the workÕs virtuoso first performer, Pablo de Sarasate. Based on student songs, BrahmsÕ Academic Festival Overture is a boisterous romp and an audience favorite. And Francesca da Rimini, TchaikovskyÕs symphonic poem about DanteÕs doomed lovers, is a whirlwind of passion descending through the circles of hell. Fun stuff!
