Baroque Revisited

Presented by Ukiah Symphony Orchestra

Concert 3 Feb 8, 8pm & Feb 9, 2pm
“Baroque Revisited” Bach/Webern, Tchaikovsky, Schnittke, and Respighi
Composers often look back to the old masters for inspiration. Baroque Revisited explores pieces written in the baroque style by late 19th and 20th century composers. All of the music on this concert was written 125–225 years after the Baroque period (1600–1750). The most recent piece, Alfred Schnittke’s Suite in the Old Style, was composed less than 50 years ago. Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Variations on a Rococo Theme for Cello and Orchestra is the oldest piece on the program, written in 1877. Cellist Natalie Raney’s shimmering artistry will be on display with Tchaikovsky’s virtuosic and playful cello concerto.
Music Director Phillip Lenberg will be delivering a ½ hour pre-concert talk at Feb 8--7pm, Feb 9 1pm.
Please visit the Ukiah Symphony.org website to order tickets, listen to recordings of the pieces and read the soloist’s Bio.
