The Music of Dance: Schubert & Strauss with the Oregon Symphony

• Xavier Foley, double bass
• David Danzmayr, conductor

Giancarlo Castro D'Addona — Selected works (commission/world premiere TBA)
Astor Piazzolla — Las cuatro estaciones porteñas ("The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires") (arr. G. Moreira for double bass & orchestra)
Franz Schubert — Symphony No. 8 in B minor, D. 759 "Unfinished"
Richard Strauss — Suite from Der Rosenkavalier, Op. 59

The lyricism of music inspired by dance takes center stage in Schubert's "Unfinished" Symphony and Strauss's Rosenkavalier Suite — their rhythms and melodies evoking the opulence of 19th-century Vienna. And Artist-in-Residence Xavier Foley paints musical portraits of Argentina in a new arrangement of Piazzolla's tango-infused Four Seasons of Buenos Aires.

Runs June 1-3. Note: The June 1 concert takes place at 2pm due to the Starlight Parade.
