Lembranças do Sertão (Jungle Souvenirs) and a rugged
string quartet that revels in the extreme beauty of the pampas, lead the way
into the primal power of ancient Mexican and South American cultures at their
most intoxicating, colorful, and rhythmically infectious. These percussion-rich
orchestral and ensemble scores will involve 65 musicians with 13 exceptional
students from the Jacaranda Youth Chamber Orchestra playing side-by-side. |
