Bartók – Divertimento
None of the composers on our program could be called Romantic in the strictest sense. But the depth of emotion pouring through every bar of their scores is vast – tender and heartbreaking, vicious and potent music, and from completely unique compositional voices. We are thrilled to welcome you to the second season of our new chamber orchestra. Join us for an afternoon of Walton's seething Sonata for Strings, Elgar's Serenade, and the raucous bacchanal of Bartók's Divertimento.
