THE ACADEMY FESTIVAL ORCHESTRA
LEONARD SLATKIN, conductor

Opening with an exhilarating, tropicalized fandango, the illustrious music director of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra delves into two symphonic masterworks. Between his imposing 7th and 9th symphonies, Beethoven wrote the buoyant 8th. Inspired by Beethoven, the Soviet composer Shostakovich presented his eloquent, monumental 5th symphony in 1937, winning Stalin’s approval and public acclaim.

Roberto Sierra: Fandangos
