Giancarlo Guerrero Returns

This concert will move you from dream to drama!

Debussy’s Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun opens with sensual, dreamlike melodies. Then Mozart’s Symphony No. 31, “Paris,” sparkles with elegance and youthful energy.

Then the grand finale - Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique, a feverish, hallucinatory journey inspired by Berlioz’s own opium-fueled dreams, where obsession, passion, and imagination spiral into one of the most dramatic symphonies ever written.

Heroic Transformations: Beethoven

It’s an evening of Beethoven! Beethoven’s Violin Concerto will hook you with a human, voice-like soloist you can watch and connect with in real time, while “Eroica” delivers big drama, bold melodies, and raw intensity that feels closer to a film score than a history lesson.

Together, they offer beauty, tension, and release—music that tells a story and hits you in the gut.
