Conducted by Timothy Myers

Immerse yourself in the vibrant energy and exceptional talent of the Spoleto Festival USA Orchestra, showcasing a brilliant ensemble of emerging musicians at the peak of their early careers led by Music Director Timothy Myers. This captivating performance features the dazzling virtuosity of violinist Alexi Kenney as he takes on the iconic Sibelius concerto, and the sweeping drama and exquisite beauty of Strauss’s Der Rosenkavalier orchestral suite. These two jewels are intertwined with works by two of today’s most intriguing composers in Stellar, a powerful opener by the “lyrical, complex, singular” (The Guardian) Shawn E. Okpebholo, and a dive into the “ocean of orchestral sonorities” (Los Angeles Times) in Samy Moussa’s mesmerizing Elysium.
