Guerrero Conducts Pines of Rome

Conductor Giancarlo Guerrero brings out all the Technicolor glory of Ottorino Respighi’s vivid Roman postcards, Fountains of Rome and Pines of Rome. 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. Kicking off the concert is Kaija Saariaho’s astronomical Asteroid 4179: Toutatis.
