Foothills’ 26th season showcases world-famous classical masterpieces popular favorites chamber music and even music you may hear for the first time.
Dvořák – Slavonic Dances Op. 72 Dvorák’s characteristic folk melodies and colorful harmonies are set in eight folk dances freely moving across the Slavic world. They are rousing and reflective – stately and energetic – closing with a calmy graceful Bohemian waltz. The music is vigorous witty and highly rhythmic.
Strauss – Der Fledermaus One of the most famous overtures ever written it's impossible not to enjoy Der Fledermaus (The Bat). This absolute marvel of light-hearted fun classical music starts off with the predicament of a drunk man left at a party in a Bat costume. (The original “Batman”??) BTW an abridged version of the overture is conducted by Tom and Jerry in the 1950 cartoon Tom and Jerry in the Hollywood Bowl.
Join us at the reception following the concert and get to know the musicians over food and conversation. Concert reception and parking – absolutely FREE!
