HANNAH EISENDLE Heliosis
R. STRAUSS Oboe Concerto
BERLIOZ Symphonie Fantastique

A work of opulent orchestral colors and effects that tells a “fantastic” story, starring Hector Berlioz himself, besotted with a Shakespearian actress. His passion-propelled Symphonie Fantastique follows the love-sick hero’s drug-induced visions to a glittering ball, the march to the scaffold and a demonic Witches’ Sabbath with the Dies irae pounding out a hair-raising theme amid tumult. Giedrė Šlekytė “the embodiment of youthful energy, enthusiasm, and determination“(La scena musicale) makes her DSO premiere leading Strauss’s tuneful Oboe Concerto, with Principal Oboe Erin Hannigan in the spotlight.
