The concerts will feature three works by Arturo Marquez, the Sonoran-born Mexican composer, as well as pieces by Reynaldo Hanh of Venezuela, Astor Piazzola of Argentina, Oscar Lorenzo Fernandez of Brazil and Manuel de Falla of Spain.
MusicaNova, taking the stage in the first half of the concert, will perform Hahn’s 1910 ballet La Fete Chez Therese, the Tango and Ritual Fire Dance from de Falla’s El Amor Brujo (1914-1925), and Marquez’s most popular piece, Danzon No. 2 (1994).
The two orchestras will then combine forces in the second half, playing Piazzola’s Libertango (1974), Fernandez’s Batuque (1930) and Marquez’s Conga del Fuego (2005)
