RCO's Notes from the Program
The Old Style
Respighi’s imaginative orchestrations of lute music and Bloch’s challenge to his skeptical students bookend a program of works inspired by early music. Jennifer Corning Lucio, Fort Worth Symphony’s principal oboe, performs Vaughan Williams’ pastoral oboe concerto and the baroque concerto grosso form gets a jazz-inflected rethinking by Errolyn Wallen, “the renaissance woman of contemporary British music.”
