OVERVIEW

Be transported through lush landscapes with Respighi’s The Pines of Rome. From playful moments in the Villa Borghese, to the moonlit serenity of the Janiculum, to the mystical sounds of the Appian Way at dawn, this is a captivating journey among the iconic pine trees of the Eternal City.

Strauss’ opera Der Rosenkavalier was all the rage in early 20th-century Vienna, and the suite captures its romance, humor, and memorable musical moments. Pablo Ferrández takes center stage in Korngold’s Cello Concerto, a cinematic love story originally written for film, followed by Tchaikovsky’s Variations on a Rococo Theme, a graceful theme and variations to showcase the cellist’s virtuosity.
