What's Interesting

A truly unforgettable May Festival finale. Principal Conductor Juanjo Mena leads a wildly colorful collage of South American works. Feel the rhythms dreamt of by Brazilian master Heitor Villa-Lobos and experience Venezuelan composer Antonio Estévez’s vividly cinematic Cantata Criolla—the story of the devil and a singing contest sometimes called South America’s Carmina Burana.
