Free Pablo’s Guitar Practice at Kleinhans with the BPO

**Penny D has 35 free entry tickets. Meet near the inside ticket window to receive ticket and meet the group at 9:30 am. Rehearsal begins at 10 - 12 PM Kleinhans Music Hall Open Rehearsal Pablo’s Guitar. This program will take listeners on a tour of melodies hailing from around the world. Bacewicz’s six-minute Overture for Orchestra was composed during the German occupation of Poland and offers an exciting, perpetually shifting palette of colors. The short duration of this Overture does not keep Bacewicz from demonstrating a litany of orchestral sounds and moods in her composition, overlooked until recently. Meanwhile, Spaniard Joaquin Rodrigo’s animated Concierto de Aranjuez features elaborate instrumentation for classical guitar. The piece took its first recorded form as a Braille manuscript carried into Spain by Rodrigo at the outbreak of the Second World War. Fauré’s Pelléas et Mélisande Suite offers a contemplative reprieve in a romantic and tragic orchestral retelling of elicit lovers and their star-crossed fate, and Alexander Borodin brings the program’s close with his colorful Symphony No. 2, which evokes the exuberance of Russian folk dances. This concert brings the songs of people across time and space to listeners for an experience full of diverse musical landscapes.
