Ravel + Debussy: Colors of Spain

RAVEL: Alborada del gracioso MATTHIAS PINTSCHER: Un despertar DEBUSSY: Images Concert Duration: Approx. 1 hour, 45 minutes with intermission. What’s interesting about this concert: • Sketches of Spain from two celebrated French composers. • Matthias Pintscher conducts his own Un despertar, a tender work written for guest cellist Alisa Weilerstein. • “It’s easy to hear why [Weilerstein’s] playing has so captivated the world—she sings each note with a warmth and care that is at once familiar and unique” (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette).
