This concert unfolds slowly with Shekhar’s Lumina, a delicately beautiful piece that imagines a journey from darkness into light. Principal Percussionist Dana Dominguez, a Bozeman favorite, is featured with a marimba playing Grammy Award-winning composer Puts’ Marimba Concerto. This piece is a favorite of our music director and features the marimba in both melodic and ornamental roles alongside the orchestra. Finally, experience Ravel’s epic orchestration of Modest Mussorgsky’s piano suite Pictures at an Exhibition, a musical tour of artworks by Russian architect and painter Viktor Hartmann that one of Ravel’s chroniclers once described as a “dazzling array of instrumental color.”
