Mozart's elegant "Paris" Symphony and Schumann's expressive "Spring" Symphony naturally suggest our March concert theme.
The
soloist for New Music Advisor David Ludwig's new bassoon concerto--
intriguingly titled "Pictures from the Floating World"--is one of the
principal bassoonists of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra (having won
the position two years ago fresh out of music school). There is a French
connection here as well: Ludwig's piece invokes the Japanese art prints
that fascinated Debussy.
