Symphony Series IV: Danse Bacchanale

Guest Conductor TBD

The Commons, 300 Washington St. Columbus, IN

Masks are optional

Prepare to dance the night away with an incredible lineup of works inspired by dance music. A universal language, dancing is taken up by every culture in the world. What type of dance would most represent Columbus as we greet Mexico, France, and Germany? Born in 1950, Mexican composer Arturo Márquez wrote great music for the orchestra that incorporated the musical language of his native land. Danzón № 2 is one of his most popular works and features the percussion section of the CSO with incredible colors and rhythmic energy.  The CSO will present four Hungarian Dances by Johannes Brahms followed by a Seitz Violin Concert.

Saint-Saëns: Danse macabre, Op. 40 
Arturo Márquez: Danzón № 2 
Brahms: Hungarian Dance No. 1, 5, 6, 7  
Saint-Saëns: Danse Bacchanale
Co-winner of Laura Showalter Youth Concerto Competition
