About this Event
Prepare for a thrilling evening at the FIU Music Festival 2024 as the FIU Symphony Orchestra conducted by the dynamic Javier José Mendoza, brings together two monumental works that bridge the sounds of the Americas.
The program opens with Dvořák’s iconic Symphony No. 9, "From the New World," which captures the raw spirit of America with sweeping melodies that merge classical sophistication with the pulse of spirituals and Native American influences. The energy then surges with Revueltas’ "Noche de los Mayas," a high-octane celebration of Mexico’s ancient culture, driven by thunderous percussion, powerful brass, and vivid orchestrations. Revueltas’ work is an exhilarating sonic journey, bursting with life and the rhythm of Latin American heritage.
This concert will take you on a journey from the wide-open plains of Dvořák’s America to the mystical, ancient rituals of Revueltas’ Mexico. Don’t miss your chance to experience these two explosive works in one breathtaking night!
