Pacific Chamber Symphony Presents Paul Galbraith
Pacific Chamber Symphony presents a program of lyric Romanticism with a Spanish flavor. .......................................................................................................................................................... For its season finale, the Pacific Chamber Symphony welcomes guest artist Paul Galbraith, the world-renowned guitarist, as Maestro Lawrence Kohl adds the Spanish flair of Rodrigo's "Concierto de Aranjuez" to the Romanticism of Beethoven's Third ("Eroica") Symphony. Played in the cello position, with a metal endpin and wooden resonator box, Galbraith’s eight stringed “Brahms Guitar” makes available a sonority and dynamic range previously unattainable on the guitar. ............................................................................................................................................................ As a bonus, the concert will also include a performance by Livermore Rotary Music Scholarship recipient oboist Alex Curtis. Mr. Curtis received many awards as a high school student while at Livermore High School, and is currently studying music at the University of California at Irvine. He will play the Marcelo Concerto in D Minor.
