About the Music

Frequent guest conductor Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos returns this season for two weeks of concerts. This first series features the young American violin virtuoso Hilary Hahn in Prokofiev’s alternately lyrical and witty Violin Concerto No. 1. Also on the program are three orchestrations of brilliant piano pieces by the Spanish composer Isaac Albéniz. They represent three different piano suites: "Córdoba from Cantos de España" and "Granada from Suite español", both orchestrated by Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos, and "El Corpus en Sevilla" from Book I of Iberia, orchestrated by Albéniz's friend Enrique Fernández Arbós. These and Rimsky-Korsakov’s exotic Persian-tinged Scheherazade (inspired by Arabian Nights) are breathtaking orchestral showpieces.
