Writing a concerto for guitar stretched British composer Joby Talbot's abilities, but his 2018 concerto Ink Dark Moon is an approachable, crowd-pleasing vehicle that demonstrates the fierier capabilities of the guitar in perfect balance with the orchestra. Mendelssohn's Hebrides Overture opens the concert with its undulating, wave-like cello lines and tempestuous recollections of Scotland's eerie west coast, and Beethoven's Symphony No. 3, "Eroica," remains one of the purest works of creative genius in the classical canon.
The concert will feature conductor David Briskin and guitarist Artyom Dervoed.
