Description:
Malcolm Rosenberg Hillel Center presents Cayambis Sinfonietta's October Concert on Wednesday, October 16, 2024.

The internationally acclaimed Uruguayan-American-Israeli conductor, Gisèle Ben-Dor, will guest conduct the Cayambis Sinfonietta. Across the eight pieces that make up its October 16th program, the Sinfonietta will demonstrate its remarkable versatility by performing a representative cross section of our hemisphere’s most important musical styles over the past one hundred and fifty years, including an Italianate opera overture from Brazil, symphonic poems from Chile and Uruguay, and a late Romantic concert overture from the United States.

The program will also feature the world premiere performance of a work composed for the ensemble by Venezuelan composer Josefina Benedetti. The seventeen-member professional chamber orchestra is made up of some of the area’s finest musicians, including clarinetist Sarunas Jankauskas, violinist Charley Shafer, and percussionist Annie Stevens. The ensemble is led by music director Dr. John L. Walker.

Tickets are $20.00 for adults, $15.00 for seniors and $12.00 for seniors.
