Rafael Payare: From Andalusia to the Plains of Venezuela

Rafael Payare: From Andalusia to the Plains of Venezuela

Maison symphonique de Montréal

SEASON PARTNER

BMO-WEB---+Marge

This program juxtaposes two heroes in their quest for an ideal: Don Quixote, the wandering knight who ventures out to battle evil on the Andalusian plains, and Florentino, a Venezuelan plainsman who wrestles with the Devil in a singing contest in Estévez’s Cantata criolla. This masterpiece of the South American repertoire, which Rafael Payare invites us to discover, concludes a richly eventful evening also featuring the world premiere of a work by OSM Composer-in-residence Ana Sokolović.
