The Syracuse Orchestra presents an evening of animal-themed music! We begin with Saint-Saens’ Carnival of the Animals and 14 animals represented through the performance of pianists Aaron Wunsch and Giancarlo Llerena. Explore the Secret of the Wind and Birds from Tan Dun, who also composed the Academy Award-winning music for “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”. In Elgar’s Enigma Variations, listen for musical references that communicate personality traits of 14 of his friends (with a special musical homage to a friend’s beloved bulldog!)
