Art of Élan presents ARIA
San Diego, California
Tuesday, 28 October 2014 - 7:00 PM
Presenter: Art of Élan
Art of Élan's eighth season begins with an engaging and varied program of lyrical works spanning four centuries, including dramatic and colorful compositions by the provocative 34 year-old composer Nico Muhly and the Art of Élan debut of sparkling local soprano Priti Gandhi in Respighi’s Il Tramonto, an enchanting setting of Shelley's poem The Sunset for voice and string quartet. The program also features Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos, Baroque master Henry Purcell (excerpts from his opera The Fairy Queen), and Italian opera icon Giacomo Puccini's lush Chrysanthemums quartet.
