Intérprete: Sofia Selowsky

In a program with Chabrier’s España and Falla’s The Three-Cornered Hat, the Houston Symphony ambitiously unearthed Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco’s Cello Concerto, last heard at its premiere with the New York Philharmonic in 1935.

As part of the season of Scrooges and Santas, it’s a refreshing reminder of sweet simplicity in a complicated world.
