ABOUT THIS PERFORMANCE

That Fabulous French Flair

French music has a certain je ne sais quoi, an intriguing blend of elegance, emotion and pageantry that characterizes the national style.

This program featured beloved French symphonic classics, from the energetic Romanticism of Hector Berlioz’ Roman Carnival Overture to the evocative tone-painting of La Mer (The Sea) by Impressionist composer Claude Debussy; the fluid sensuality of Maurice Ravel’s Scheherazade (featuring soprano Shannon Dooley); the orchestral wizardry of The Sorcerer’s Apprentice by Paul Dukas; and the riveting drama of Camille Saint-Saëns’ “Bacchanale” from the opera Samson et Dalilah.
