Vallejo Symphony Concert
Love, Death, and Dance-
Our spring concert takes off into flights of fancy with three evocative works that will transport you to other worlds. Rossini’s dramatic opera Semiramide is only seldom performed today, but its lovely, bittersweet overture alternates gorgeous wind and brass solos with martial passages that express the violent passions unleashed in its plot. Fauré’s poignant Pavane evokes a lovely and mysterious vision of dances from other times. Brahms’s stormy Symphony No. 4 is an emotional journey in itself, from passionate yearning to fulfillment.
Rossini—Semiramide Overture
Fauré—Pavane
