ROCO In Concert: Courageous
ROCO’s trailblazing spirit was embodied in “COURAGEOUS”, spotlighting the full 40-piece chamber orchestra, on February 8th at The Church of St. John the Divine! Led by ROCO’s newest Artistic Partner Delyana Lazarova, and featuring acclaimed pianist Lara Downes, this concert was a testament to daring artistry.
The Houston Youth Symphony joined ROCO once again in a dynamic side-by-side collaboration, for Emilie Mayer‘s bold Overture No. 2 in D Major. Explore the cutting edge of classical music with the Texas premiere of Clarice Assad‘s The Evolution of AI, a ROCO co-commissioned work featuring the composer as performer, harnessing the power of artificial intelligence for creation. Then, experience the world premiere of Assad’s Total Eclipse, a piano concerto commissioned by ROCO, inspired by the 2024 total solar eclipse and contrasts of light and darkness. The evening culminated with revolutionary exuberance, in Ludwig van Beethoven‘s passionate Symphony No. 7
