BEETHOVEN & STRAVINSKY
One of the greatest choral works of the 20th century is the centerpiece of a program conducted by the last of our six candidates for OSSCS music director: Eric Garcia, formerly assistant conductor of the Seattle Symphony and the Eastern Music Festival. Igor Stravinsky called the Biblical verses at the heart of his Symphony of Psalms "poems of exaltation, but also of anger and judgment, and even of curses." Employing a highly unusual orchestration, the work runs the gamut from violent rhythms to exalted "alleluias." The concert opens with a dramatic overture by Weber and closes with Beethoven's seventh symphony, which Richard Wagner called "the apotheosis of the dance."
