Nova Plexus
June 13 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
Derrick Skye: Nova Plexus
George Frideric Handel: Organ Concerto
Camille Saint-Saëns: Symphony No. 3 In C Minor, Op. 78, “Organ Symphony”
Saint-Saëns’s symphony is known as “THE organ symphony” and for good reason: the sweet and familiar melodies hung between moments of blazing climactic glory will have audiences at the edge of their seats. Each movement is better than the last! Leading up to this epic work is an organ concerto by Handel, which has inspired composers for centuries. Also on the program is a new work by Derrick Skye, “Nova Plexus,” co-commissioned by DPAA, the Berkeley Symphony, and the BBC.
