Folklore & Fantasy

Menacing timpani rolls set the tone for Rossini’s solemn Overture to Semiramide, a deceivingly upbeat narration of family rivalries. Bartók’s Dance Suite—featuring five original Hungarian folk soundscapes composed for the 50th anniversary of the merger of Buda and Pest—offers a vibrant musical journey. Chopin’s poetic Piano Concerto No. 1 stands as a sparkling showcase of virtuosity.
