The Orchestra San Antonio
José Luis Gómez

This week we're taking you to the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts, and a concert featuring their resident company The Orchestra San Antonio, guest conducted by José Luis Gómez. We'll go on a journey to Andalusia through music by Georges Bizet, and will spin tales from 1001 Arabian Nights, with music by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. Along the way, we’ll hear Cameron Renshaw, a young cellist that NPR called "a born entertainer," playing music by Tchaikovsky.

PROGRAM:

  • Georges Bizet: Selections from "Carmen"
  • Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: Variations on a Rococo Theme
  • Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov: Scheherazade
