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
