Bass Performance Hall
FWSO: The Sounds of Paris
Friday, January 9 | 7:30pm
Debussy captures the power and essence of the sea in his fluid La mer, drawing inspiration from both his childhood memories of the ocean as well as different painters’ interpretations. Next, Ravel’s Pavane for a Dead Princess invokes a courtly Italian dance, a slow, stately affair also inspired by historic paintings, while the finale of Chopin’s Piano Concerto No. 2 — the first he wrote, but the second he published — boasts an earthy, bravura charm. The concert concludes with another French work, Berlioz’ aching “Love Scene” from his dramatic symphony Romeo and Juliet.
