VISIONS
With the East Coast Chamber Orchestra
The East Coast Chamber Orchestra bursts onto the stage with the baroque swagger of Battalia à 10, a vivid musical depiction of the grace and chaos of a military camp. Latvian composer Peteris Vasks describes his Distant Light as “nostalgia with a touch of tragedy,” with its haunting violin melodies and dreamy expansiveness. Following the Maine premiere of a new solo piano work by Maine’s own Henry Kramer, Béla Bartók’s Divertimento closes out the evening with an irresistible folk dance party.
Join the artists for a complimentary post-concert reception.
