SUMMARY:Roman Festivals
DESCRIPTION:Respighi celebrated the past and present beauties of his beloved adopted city in three tone poems or suites: Fountains of Rome (1916)\, Pines of Rome (1924)\, and Roman Festivals (1928). \nHe attached a preface to the score of Roman Festivals\, setting out the scenes he intended it to evoke. \nCircenses: A threatening sky hangs over the Circus Maximus\, but it is the people’s holiday: Ave Nero! The iron doors are unlocked\, the strains of a religious song and the howling of wild beasts float on the air. The crowd rises in agitation: unperturbed\, the song of the martyrs develops\, conquers\, then is lost in the tumult. \nIl Giubileo (The Jubilee): The pilgrims trail along the highway\, praying. Finally appears the summit of Monte Mario\, to ardent eyes and gasping souls\, the holy city: Rome! Rome! A hymn of praise bursts forth\, the churches ring out their reply. \nL’Ottobrata (The October Festival): The October Festival in the Roman Castelli covered with vines: hunting echoes\, tinkling of bells\, songs of love. Then in the tender evening\, a romantic serenade. \nLa Befana (The Epiphany): The night before Epiphany in the Piazza Navona: a characteristic rhythm of trumpets dominates the frantic clamor: above the swelling noise float\, from time to time\, rustic motives\, saltarello cadenzas\, the strains of a barrel organ and the appeal of a barker\, the harsh song of the drunkard\, and the lively stornello in which is expressed the popular feeling\, “Let us pass\, we are Romans!” \nJoin us on a musical journey to the Eternal City as Respighi’s cinematic musical style brings ancient Rome to life. Tickets on sale September 4\, 2018. \nOctober 6\, 2018 | 7:30pm-9:30pm\nOctober 7\, 2018 | 2:30pm-4:30pm\nScott Speck conductor \nProgram:\nAdams | Short Ride in a Fast Machine\nStrauss | Rosenkavalier Suite\nBerlioz | Roman Carnival Overture\nRespighi | Roman Festivals \n\nSponsored By:\n\nThe Laura Lee Pattilo Norquest Charitable Foundation \nMedia Sponsor:
