PYOTR ILYICH TCHAIKOVSKY – Souvenir de Florence
Every journey has obstacles and leaves the traveler changed upon returning. How is this journey and transfiguration expressed through music? Works include Joey Roukens’s sea-shanty-infused Visions at Sea, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s lush Souvenir de Florence, and Jimmy Lopez’s transcendental Guardian of the Horizon, performed by Adé Williams and Gabriel Gabezas, who premiered the work with the Sphinx Virtuosi in 2017.
