Guerrero Conducts Pines of Rome

About this event

Conductor Giancarlo Guerrero brings out all the Technicolor glory of Ottorino Respighi's Roman postcards, Fountains of Rome and Pines of Rome — two vivid tone poems that sound like the best movie you've never seen. Stravinsky’s ballet Petrushka is equally dramatic, placing us amid the hurly-burly of a Russian carnival where a trio of magical puppets comes to life.
