Tales from the Vienna Woods, celebrates the beauty of nature through music. Anchored by the
beloved waltz by Johann Strauss Jr, the program explores themes of the outdoors with
Beethoven’s Pastoral Symphony, a vivid portrayal of nature’s tranquility and storms. Adding a
contemporary touch, the concert features the West Coast premiere of Jill Haley’s National Park
Suite No. 2, a stunning musical journey through America’s national parks, inspired by the
composer’s residencies in these breathtaking landscapes.
