New World Symphony has outlined a series of March performances in Miami, including full-orchestra and chamber programs at the Adrienne Arsht Center and New World Center.
On March 7 the orchestra returns to the Adrienne Arsht Center for an evening built around Ravel’s Daphnis and Chloé, with Stéphane Denève conducting and soprano Kelley O’Connor performing settings of Pablo Neruda love poems. Later in the month Denève leads “Denève + Hadelich: The Hollywood Sound” on March 14 and 15, featuring Augustin Hadelich in Korngold’s Violin Concerto along with Strauss’ Also sprach Zarathustra and music by Max Steiner associated with early Hollywood cinema.
Chamber programs during March include “Ives, Monk, Cage & Eastman” on March 22, which links works inspired by subjects from Ellis Island to Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, and “Percussion: Americans Got Rhythm” on March 29, which focuses on American repertoire that emphasizes rhythmic drive and resonance.
Fellow-led events place NWS musicians in the spotlight, including “Devotion Meets the Symphony” on March 18, a meditative concert conceived by Viola Fellow Srivishnu Ramankutty, and “If it ain’t Baroque...” on March 31, which revisits music associated with Bach’s coffeehouse in Leipzig and other Baroque and Baroque-influenced works.
Tickets and additional program details are available on the New World Symphony website.
