SUMMARY:Asheville Symphony Masterworks 2: Nightfall
DESCRIPTION:Darko Butorac\, conductor\nJoseph Conyers\, double bass \nThere is a serene kind of beauty found only at twilight\, when the landscape cedes to legend; this program lingers in these wild places at their most untamed and fragile. Anna Clyne’s stormy nocturne gathers “every shred of the luminous past” like “a naked woman running mad through the pure night.” Tan Dun’s spiritually cinematic Wolf Totem summons the mythical Mongolian wolf from the grasslands. Sibelius’s devastating Fifth conjures the inscrutable patterns of the aurora. Three works that find beauty in loss\, solace in vast spaces\, and mystery in the gathering dark. \nClyne: This Midnight Hour\nTan: Contrabass Concerto: Wolf Totem\nSibelius: Symphony No. 5

SUMMARY:Asheville Symphony Masterworks 3: Double Take
DESCRIPTION:Darko Butorac\, conductor\nInna Faliks\, minimoog  \nSome moments demand a double take: Romeo catching sight of Juliet across a crowded ballroom\, a synthesizer taking the stage where the piano should be. This program explores impossible and intoxicating pairings. Sergei Prokofiev conjures Shakespeare’s star-crossed tragedy in all its beauty and brutality — forbidden love\, violent delights\, and violent ends. Grandson Gabriel Prokofiev offers his own unlikely pairing with the first-ever concerto for Asheville’s own Minimoog\, where acid house collides with the classical and shattering convention becomes a family tradition. \nKabalevsky: Overture from Colas Breugnon\nGabriel Prokofiev: Concerto for Minimoog Synthesizer and Orchestra\nSergei Prokofiev: Romeo & Juliet Suite
