Intermission
Falla: El amor brujo ballet suite
Romantic melodies flow in a concert filled with fire and passion. Tchaikovsky International Competition winner Itamar Zorman brings his intimate, intense and fiery playing to American composer Jonathan Leshnoff’s Violin Concerto, in music that is “…thoroughly beautiful, extraordinarily moving.” Emotions are heightened again with “the poet of Spanish emotion” Manuel de Falla’s flamenco ballet music distilled from Gypsy songs and Andalusian rhythms, including the Ritual Fire Dance.
Itamar Zorman’s appearance is made possible by Atlantis Casino Resort Spa & Heidemarie Rochlin in celebration of Israeli arts and culture.
Tonight’s performance of El amor brujo ballet suite is dedicated to Nora.
Repertoire and Guest Artists subject to change.
