ROCO In Concert: Starburst
ROCO’s 16th season In Concert series kicked off Sept. 26, 2020 with “Starburst”, a program of musical light and energy, conducted by ROCO Artistic Partner Mei-Ann Chen.
The all-virtual concert featured Richard Scofano as composer and soloist on the bandoneon (a Latin-American bellowed instrument), in the world premiere of his new work La Tierra Sin Mal (The Land Without Evil), and additional works included Jessie Montgomery’s brilliant Starburst; Fauré’s Masques et bergamasques; Debussy’s Clair de Lune; and Kodály’s Dances of Marosszék.
