Joshua Bell Plays Saint-Saëns

David Danzmayr, Conductor
Joshua Bell, Violin

Saint-Saëns: Violin Concerto No. 3
Bizet: L’Arlésienne Suite No. 1
Stravinsky: The Firebird Suite

Violin superstar Joshua Bell joins the Oregon Symphony for the grandest of season openings! One of the most celebrated, most award-crowned artists of our day, he shines in Saint-Saëns’ Violin Concerto, lifting you into the stratosphere of the instrument’s register. Stravinsky’s sumptuous Suite from The Firebird is filled with the stuff of fairytales: a prince, captive princesses, the Firebird’s magic feather, and an evil ogre. Vibrant colors and rich harmonies glitter and pulse, ending with the gossamer Lullaby and a shimmering climax.
