Masterworks 6 - La Valse (The Waltz)
Erin Aldridge, violin
DSSO Chorus
We bring the Masterworks season to a close with the best the DSSO has to offer, featuring our incredible musicians, our concertmaster Erin Aldridge, and our beloved DSSO Chorus. The concert starts with a celebration of Maurice Ravel’s 150th birthday, featuring his virtuosic La Valse that shows of the orchestra in all its splendor. Erin will then take the stage with Ravel’s Tzigane for violin and orchestra, as well as the beautiful Poème by French composer Ernest Chausson. After two riveting Latin American Dances by American composer Gabriella Lena Frank, we then feature our DSSO Chorus in Johannes Brahms’ serene Schicksalslied and the rousing Time and Again Barelas choral suite by American/Uruguayan composer Miguel del Aguila.
