The Holguín Symphony Orchestra will offer a great concert on Saturday, July 13 in the Raúl Camayd hall of the Eddy Suñol Theater of this city, under the baton of Mexican conductor Jorge Vázquez and the New Zealand violinist Amalia Hall, as special guests.
The concert, sponsored by the Cuban Institute of Music and the National Center for Concert Music, is part of an international tour of Latin America that begins in Holguín and will end its tour on the island, in the province of Camagüey.
The current Artistic Director of the Philharmonic Orchestra in Xalapa (Mexico), Jorge Vázquez, is acclaimed for his dynamic interpretations in different parts of the world such as Russia, France, England and other international destinations. The musician expressed the honor of directing this concert and of getting to know a brother country through its artists.
“We will open with a fantastic overture, it will be like a kind of musical dawn, very effervescent, to enjoy the virtuosity of each of the members of the orchestra. Then we will play a work that I am doing for the first time in concert, Mozart's Symphony No. 36, a very elegant work that I believe is part of that Cuban soul that I hear so much in my country," commented Vázquez.
It is very common in the world's orchestras to receive top-level guests who provide another vision of art, an opportunity that Oreste Saavedra Sánchez, Director of the Holguín Symphony Orchestra, appreciates: “We are very grateful, especially because our work is focused on enhance the training and learning process.”
