Hi  --

But about the 2nd and 3rd...

Narong Prangcharoen’s Raging Fire tells the story of humans’ complex relationship with fire, an ancient symbol of power and light. Raging Fire starts with the full orchestra as “a rise of fire”, and finishes with a greatness that depicts the entire world burning. Artistic Director José-Luis Novo worked with composer Prangcharoen in the past and is excited to revisit the work on the stage at Maryland Hall and Strathmore (on February 4th). 
 

Jean Sibelius’ Violin Concerto in D minor, originally composed in 1904 and revised in 1905, is the only concerto by the great and prolific composer. Born in Finland in 1865, Sibelius is widely regarded as his country’s greatest composer and his music is often credited with having helped Finland develop a national identity during its struggle for independence from Russia. Soloist Elissa Lee Koljonen, with some Finnish heritage of her own, will join the ASO as guest violinist.

Symphony No. 6 in B minor, Op. 74, also known as the Pathétique Symphony, is Tchaikovsky’s final completed symphony, written between February and the end of August 1893. Tchaikovsky described the composition in letters as “the best thing I ever composed or shall compose.” Noted by ASO musicians as one of their favorite pieces to play, the excitement, drama, and hyper-romantic melodies make “Pathétique” a real treat for audiences. 

We are so fortunate to have world-class, professional musicians in our midst. I hope I will see you at one of these performances!

Enjoy!

All the best!
