DEBUSSY Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun
MILHAUD Le boeuf sur le toit
SAINT-SAËNS Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso
RAVEL Daphnis and Chloe Suites Nos. 1 & 2

In the tranquil Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun, Debussy portrays the hazy desires and dreams of a faun in the heat of the afternoon. Milhaud’s music is a raucous romp of popular Brazilian tunes that was originally written to be the score for a silent Charlie Chaplin film. Revel in the height of impressionism as the carnal tale of Daphnis and Chloe unfolds. With pirates, nymphs and bird songs all painted in a veil of impressionistic colors, this love story builds to an erotic tumult you won’t soon forget.

TCHAIKOVSKY Symphony No. 6, “Pathétique”

Enjoy the New York City-area premiere of Brazilian composer Sergio Assad’s new piece written specifically for the Los Angeles Guitar Quartet. Tchaikovsky’s “Pathétique” Symphony is an unforgettable experience of human triumph and loss. The composer himself said, “I have put my whole soul into this work.” Hear Tchaikovsky’s final orchestral statement for yourself and discover what some consider to be his most autobiographical work.
