Join fellow grads and Huskies for Husky Night at the Northwest Sinfonietta! Witness the extraordinary double bassist, Xavier Foley as he joins the NW Sinfonietta for the favorite, three B’s— Bach, Beethoven, and…Bass!
The program includes his performance of Bottesini’s virtuosic Gran duo concertante with Concertmaster Denise Dillenbeck, and his own sweeping composition, For Justice and Peace. Also included are Clarice Assad’s Suite for Lower Strings. Each playful movement highlights famous and recognizable themes by J.S. Bach in this fantasy suite. To close the season, Artistic Partner Jeffery Meyer leads the orchestra in Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7, a sublime epic filled with Beethoven’s optimism in the face of adversity, and ultimately hope for the future.
