Join the WHCO as we kick off our 2026–27 season dedicated to exploring Resiliencia con Rompiendo barreras , a program celebrating those brave and bold artistic voices that defied the expectations of their time.
Repertorio:
- Igor Stravinsky: Dumbarton Oaks
- Andrea Casarrubios: Heritage
- Louise Farrenc: Sinfonía n.º 3
The concert will last approximately one hour, without an intermission. Afterwards, there will be a reception with the musicians.
Rompiendo barreras comienza con Dumbarton Oaks, Igor Stravinsky’s ingenious and elegant chamber concerto, inspired by Johann Sebastian Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos . Herencia (“Heritage”) by Andrea Casarrubios is a deeply personal reflection on memory, identity, and cultural roots. Inspired by the composer’s Spanish heritage, the work intertwines lyrical melodies and evocative textures in a moving musical tribute to the traditions and stories that have spanned generations. We conclude our program with Louise Farrenc’s Symphony No. 3. Completed in 1847, this is generally considered the pinnacle of her orchestral output. Combining the balance of Classicism with the intensity of Romanticism, the work demonstrates a masterful command of orchestral color, dramatic structure, and lyrical invention, reaffirming her place among the leading symphonic composers of her time.
