Thierry Fischer, Conductor
Colin Currie, Percussion

Beethoven - Symphony No. 6 "Pastoral"
Wagner - Prelude to Act I of Lohengrin
Rouse - Alberich Saved
Wagner - Ride of the Valkyries

Nature and mythology collide with revolutionary color, sound and epic imagination in Beethoven's "Pastoral" Symphony and the music of Richard Wagner. The Symphony No. 6 of Beethoven is followed by the Act I Prelude to Wagner's Lohengrin and the enormously popular Ride of the Valkyries from Die Walkure. Percussionist Colin Currie returns to Utah to perform Alberich Saved, a fantasy on themes from Wagner's Ring Cycle.
