Fresno, CA
Join the Fresno Philharmonic for a celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, featuring a deeply personal new piece by composer Juan Pablo Contreras. Alma Monarca invites audiences into Contreras’s childhood memories of Día de los Muertos and the awe-inspiring Monarch butterfly migration to the Mexican state of Michoacán. Framing this moving work are the lilting and spirited Estancia: Four Dances by Ginastera and Brahms’s titanic Piano Concerto No. 1, performed with passion by acclaimed Mexican pianist Jorge Federico Osorio.
