This performance fans the flames of musical passion. Artistic Director and Conductor José-Luis Novo explores the power of fire while using orchestral music to speak to stories of darkness and light. “Fire is inextricably linked to the progress of humanity. This evening’s music explores themes of creation, destruction, power, emotion, and passion: all fiery topics!”
Masterworks III is an opportunity to enjoy great symphonic music created and generated by the heat of fire and passion: a passion for music, for playing, and for life. As we consider the emotional genesis of musical composition, we can also imagine and feel the fire that sustains both writer and player, allowing it to consume us, at least just for the moments we are together. Elissa Lee Koljonen, violinist, joins the ASO for Masterworks III.
