Dynamic composer and educator Jessie Montgomery writes musical techniques that utilizes layers of strumming and lightly plucking strings in her piece, Strum for string orchestra. Mozart’s Sinfonia Concertante in E-Flat major then introduces LACO’s principal winds as soloists creating a union between the oboe, bassoon, clarinet, and horn. The program culminates with R. Strauss’ high spirited orchestral suite Le Bourgeois gentilhomme.

We’re thrilled to be back in Zipper Hall for Concertmaster Margaret Batjer’s second chamber program, a string celebration of German composers featuring Mendelssohn’s fiery String Quartet in F minor and Brahms’ mesmerizing Sextet in G Major.

Music Director Jaime Martín will leap to the podium in November as he unites the Orchestra to welcome us all back to the concert hall. This year, Jaime expands on what makes LACO truly remarkable: an orchestra of soloists.
