Overview

Across centuries, Italy’s magnificent architecture and breathtaking landscapes have inspired countless artists. Respighi’s Fountains of Rome paints a Technicolor portrait of the Eternal City’s great fountains, while the seaside towns of the Liguria region are lovingly depicted in Swedish composer Andrea Tarrodi’s work by the same name. It was in that same region, in the rugged village of Rapallo, that Sibelius conceived his heroic Second Symphony.

This program will also be performed at a community venue to be announced on Sunday, June 1.
