Concert Program
Josiah Catalan (DSO composer-in-residence) – The Sea in Us (world premiere)
Erich Wolfgang Korngold – Cello Concerto
Alexander Glazunov – Mélodie
Claude Debussy – La Mer
The ocean as a force of nature and its reflection of human emotion have inspired composers across the centuries. Debussy’s La Mer (The Sea) forms a magical, ever-changing soundscape that has enchanted audiences for more than a century. Catalan’s ocean-inspired new work—commissioned by the DSO—will transport listeners of today and tomorrow. And cellist extraordinaire Kahn will delight with two works you won’t often get to hear: Alexander Glazunov’s “Mélodie” for cello and orchestra, and Erich Korngold’s Cello Concerto.
