Respighi Pines of Rome with Peter Oundjian

Description
Peter Oundjian welcomes audiences to a new season at Boettcher Concert Hall with a celebration of his own musical journey in his first concerts as the Colorado Symphony’s Music Director. Peter’s dear friend and mentor Pinchas Zuckerman lends his uncompromising artistry to Bruch’s Violin Concerto and, as a bonus, will delight listeners with Beethoven’s gorgeous Romance in F major.

Oundjian and composer Joan Tower have worked closely together for decades, and the result is a tailor-made suite which captures the power of her Beethoven-inspired Concerto for Orchestra. Maestro Oundjian’s twenty-year relationship with your Symphony is highlighted in Respighi’s glittering Pines of Rome, which paints a stunning sonic portrait of Rome’s scenery and its ancient secrets hidden within, concluding an opening weekend program that will captivate from the first note to the last.
