Principal Clarinet Bharat Chandra introduces Masterworks 2: The Scottish!
In an exuberant takeoff to this program, John Corigliano’s playful STOMP features Sarasota Orchestra enjoying a “stomping” good time! Violinist Randall Goosby, who has wowed audiences since his debut at age nine, joins Johannes Debus and the Orchestra in Mozart’s Violin Concerto No. 3. Composed when Mozart was only 19, the work has long been a favorite of both violinists and listeners. Mendelssohn’s Symphony No. 3 evokes the sweeping beauty of the Scottish landscape with swaggering tunes.
Park once and enjoy both dinner and a concert as pre-performance dinners return to the Van Wezel for this season of Masterworks! Chef Paul Mattison curates the scrumptious buffet menus, saying, "A musically inspired meal is an integral part of the concert experience."
Each dinner will be offered on Friday and Saturday evenings of every Masterworks concert at $65 per person, with the buffet opening at 5:30 p.m. A cash bar will also be available for beverage purchases, featuring a specialty cocktail that pays tribute to the 75th anniversary of Sarasota Orchestra: a French 75 with gin, champagne, lemon, and sugar
