MOZART – Symphony No. 41 “Jupiter”
The Classics season closes with a diverse program featuring music and musical influences from around the world. The program balances one of the most famous symphonies, Mozart’s Symphony No. 41 (“Jupiter”), with works by two composers whose pieces blend popular and classical elements. The Suite from Maria de Buenos Aires, arranged for brass quintet and percussion, is quintessentially Piazzolla—a blend of jazz, tango, and counterpoint in a style he called nuevo tango, while Reena Esmail’s Teen Murti presents three musical tableaux, each based on a Hindustani melodic tradition. The evening also features Soprano Virginia Mims performing the aria, Bachianas Brasileiras No. 5 by Brazilian composer, and conductor Villa-Lobos.
