About this Event
Featuring Venezuelan violinist Rubén Rengel from New York City, this virtuosic program traces the many ways composers have drawn from folk traditions, sometimes directly, sometimes through memory and transformation. From the blues-inflected second movement of Ravel's Violin Sonata No. 2 in G Major to the grounded, raw vitality of Bartók's Violin Rhapsody No. 1, this concert explores how local musical languages — dance, song, and storytelling — become reimagined by classical forms. Along the way, works by Dmitri Shostakovich and Johann Sebastian Bach offer a reflective counterpoint.
Featuring Daniel Anastasio, piano and Rubén Rengel, violin
