Harold in Italy
Internationally renowned violist Roberto Díaz is soloist in Berlioz's programmatic Harold in Italy which musically evokes a young man's wandering among the mountains, a group of pilgrims, a lover's serenade, and a gathering of wild brigands. Study for Orchestra spotlights the compositional work of Westminster College graduate Julia Perry, and Gershwin's popular An American in Paris recalls the sights and sounds of the City of Light.
