Roberto Díaz, viola / Robert Spano, conductor / Curtis Chamber Orchestra
at Library of Congress
Robert Spano, music director of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, leads the Curtis Chamber Orchestra in an exclusive Washington, DC appearance. Sensational violist Roberto Díaz premieres a new concerto by Jennifer Higdon, commissioned by the Library of Congress and the Curtis Institute, and Spano puts on his composer hat for a performance of his Hölderlin-Lieder. Known for playing with “great elegance and style” (The Washington Post), the orchestra rounds out the program with works by Prokofiev and Mozart.
