Joey Roukens: 365
Soar through a mythical story of princes and princesses, magic and heroics as Dutch conductor Otto Tausk leads Igor Stravinsky’s enchanting Firebird Suite. The program opens with Joey Rouken’s thought-provoking 365 —365 measures of beguiling twists and turns that take on different guises, from impressionist-like textures to minimalist passages, and references to pop and jazz. And at the end of work, listeners arrive exactly at the point where the piece started… not unlike a year cycle of 365 days. Concertgoers will receive a special treat as the virtuosic Lang Lang returns to San Diego, performing Camille Saint-Saëns’ stunning Piano Concerto No. 2.
