About this concert
New worlds, new wonders. At the threshold of the twentieth century, Debussy dreamed of a realm of pure poetry, in a Pr茅lude whose sensuality and warmth sent shivers of unexpected pleasure through western music. But as the century unfolded, countless composers were forced into exile in America: embracing (or resisting) the rhythms of jazz, the energy of modern life and the lush sounds of Hollywood. Today, Principal Guest Conductor Delyana Lazarova presents two great songs of exile and nostalgia. Rachmaninov鈥檚 Third Symphony glimmers with passion, yet conceals a profound sense of loss. And Korngold鈥檚 Violin Concerto dreams of Vienna under blue Californian skies: a stunning showcase for the 鈥済orgeous, silvery鈥 tone (The Times) of violinist Liya Petrova.
