Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall

Danny Elfman’s Percussion Concerto

David Danzmayr, Conductor
Colin Currie, Percussion

Steve Reich: Music for Pieces of Wood
Danny Elfman: Percussion Concerto
John Adams: The Chairman Dances: Foxtrot for Orchestra
Respighi: Pines of Rome

Respighi, beloved magician of orchestral colors, pays tribute to the “Eternal City” in his richly imagined Pines of Rome, transporting you to famous pine stands around Rome…to a splendid estate, mournfully to a catacomb, to the moonlit Janiculum hill with the haunting song of a nightingale, and to the Appian Way, with blazing trumpets and the thunder of marching armies. Plus, the amazing Colin Currie, former artist-in-residence and audience favorite, raises the roof in the Concerto composed for him.
