The Performance

Enjoy the elegance and energy of your HPO performing dance-inspired music! Canadian violinist Susanne Hou melds dazzling technique with gorgeous tone in Saint-Saëns’ fiery, Spanish-inflected Introduction et Rondo Capriccioso, while Philippe Hersant’s Rondes de Nuit evokes the bustling nightlife of Madrid, past and present. These pieces are framed by Ravel’s modern take on 18th-century dances and Dvořák’s dance-infused Eighth Symphony that is a splendid showcase for the musicians of the orchestra.
