Welcome to this digital edition of Phillip Huscher's Program Notes for upcoming concerts by the CSO Sep 24-29. This colorful program mixes Mediterranean inspiration with electrifying music from Latin America. Ginastera's fiery Harp Concerto is performed by celebrated French harpist Xavier de Maistre, "a virtuoso of the highest order" (Gramophone). Riccardo Muti's last performances of Bolero with the Orchestra in 2007 were hailed as "fresh, subtle. . . and genuinely exciting" (Chicago Tribune). This show-stopper will be an enthralling finish to a delightful program.
