ProgramMaurice Ravel Piano Concerto for the Left Hand Daphnis et Chloé
Like stepping into a Monet painting, Ravel’s choreographic symphony, Daphnis et Chloé, shimmers with the magic of watercolors and dreams. Adding to the reverie, Abdiel Vázquez — familiar to FSO audiences as our charismatic Holiday Pops conductor — will trade his baton for the piano bench on the Whiting stage. His performance of Ravel’s unique work for piano will single-handedly enchant you with its mysterious beauty and breathtaking technical demands. How does he do it?! We don't know yet, but we hope you’ll join us to find out!
