  • Stravinsky’s Firebird and Anna Clyne’s Woman of the Mountain

    Pabellón de Sun Valley 300 Dollar Rd, Sun Valley, Idaho, Estados Unidos

    Stravinksy’s Firebird Suite, written to accompany Diaghilev’s ballet, blends the composer’s orchestral wizardry with Russian folk tunes. By turns shimmering and spooky, the music surges with rich color and atmosphere, unfolding with slow-burn momentum toward one of classical music’s most satisfying finales. Regarding Anna Clyne’s new work for orchestra—which the Music Festival co-commissioned—the composer offers this note: “Woman of the Mountain evokes the journey of an extraordinary woman in the throes of the natural world on a quest for love as she reaches a mountain’s summit.”

  • Childress Conducts Elgar

    Pabellón de Sun Valley 300 Dollar Rd, Sun Valley, Idaho, Estados Unidos

    Stephanie Childress returns to the podium to lead a concert featuring Elgar’s Enigma Variations. His best-known work, it starts off with a pensive four-note melody which Elgar then weaves into 14 variations. In each variation, he imagines how one of 13 of his friends might turn the theme into a different melody inspired in some way by their personality. The first variation is based on his wife, Alice, and the 14th and final variation is Elgar’s own. It’s an orchestral masterpiece.
