Join us for a thrilling, multi-genre adventure with Arturo Márquez's Congo del Fuego Nuevo (Congo of the New Fire) complete with local dancers from CLINARD DANCE, followed by Derrick SKYE's multifaceted To be a Horizon, and a Chicago Sinfonietta commission by Project Inclusion Composing Fellow Michelle Isaac. The energy of the concert changes with the heart-stirring Butterfly Lovers Violin Concerto, co-composed by Chen Gang and He Zhanhao, featuring frequent Chicago Sinfonietta collaborator, violinist Melissa White. The season finale concert closes with Dvorak's Slavonic Dances - a favorite of our late founder, Maestro Paul Freeman.
Approximately 70 mins, no intermission
