Spotlight On The Symphony - Souvenir De Florence

SOUVENIR DE FLORENCE (AKA DANNY & FRIENDS)

The opening recital of our Spotlight on the Symphony Recital Series will feature six of the Symphony’s string musicians, including concertmaster Nigel Armstrong, Rebecca Jackson on violin, Daniel Stewart on viola, principal viola Chad Kaltinger, principal cello Jonah Kim, and assistant principal cello Saul Richmond-Rakerd.

The highlight of the program will be Tchaikovsky’s beautiful sextet, Souvenir de Florence. Though named because he wrote it while in Florence, the last two movements are distinctly reminiscent of Russian folk-like melodies and rhythms.

Daniel Stewart will open the program with the Telemann Viola Concerto, the first known concerto written for viola, and one of Telemann’s most famous works.
