In February, French conductor Pierre Bleuse returns to eRSO after his successful debut in 2024. Appropriately, the evening will feature a program rich in French music. It begins with Maurice Ravel’s Le Tombeau de Couperin, an orchestral adaptation of his piano suite, structured in the style of a Baroque dance suite. The program continues with Igor Stravinsky’s Violin Concerto in D, performed by the expressive and accomplished Liya Petrova. Emmanuel Chabrier’s lively rhapsody España, his most beloved orchestral piece, will also be featured. The evening closes with Claude Debussy’s Jeux (The Games), a poetic and impressionistic ballet score that premiered in 1913.
