UNM’s all-strings orchestra presents Sturm und Drang, a dramatic musical journey filled with tension, passion, and profound beauty. Experience the stormy energy of Haydn’s Symphony No. 49, often considered a cornerstone of the movement. Sibelius’s meditative Impromptu and Albeniz’s evocative Legend of Asturias provide lyrical contrast, while Smetana’s Themes from the Moldau sweep you along a musical river of Czech pride. Baptiste’s Brandenburg rounds out the program with a virtuosic, modern twist.
Conducted by Dr. Sebastian Serrano-Ayala.
Free admission. Livestream available on the UNM Music YouTube channel.
