About the Show
Under the direction of Filippo Arlia, this program opens with the evocative works of Piazzolla, including his Concerto for Bandoneón and Orchestra and the tender Adiós Nonino. Matthew Myers leads the New England Symphonic Ensemble in a performance of Bach’s Magnificat, BWV 243. Clell Wright concludes the concert with Mozart’s luminous Vesperae solennes de confessore, K. 339, joined by choirs from across the United States and Ireland.
