Description
VERDI: Vespri overture
MENDELSSOHN: Violin Concerto
TCHAIKOVSKY: Symphony No. 4
Ilyich Rivas, conductor
Elena Urioste, violin
The season finale introduces two breakout prodigies with sky’s-the-limit potential. The 16-year-old Venezuelan conductor Ilyich Rivas, touted as perhaps the next Gustavo Dudamel — today’s conductor of the moment, makes his major American orchestra and professional debut conducting Tchaikovsky’s fiercely romantic Symphony No. 4, Verdi’s Vespri Overture, and Mendelssohn’s gorgeous Violin Concerto. The latter work is further illuminated by the 22-year-old violinist Elena Urioste, Junior and Senior Laureate of the prestigious Sphinx Competition for African-American and Latino student-musicians. Her 2008 debut album of sonatas by Beethoven and Janacek marked her as “an emerging artist to watch” in Symphony magazine.
