Kim will lead The Symphonia performing Jessie Montgomery’s lively ‘Voodoo Dolls,’ two melodious works by Mozart, and the virtuosic ‘Four Seasons of Buenos Aires’ by Astor Piazzolla. One of The Symphonia’s most popular guest conductors, Kim brings passion, humor, intelligence, and even a high-tech component to each performance.



‘WATER,’ the fourth and final concert of the ‘Inspired, Naturally’ Season is on April 30


The fourth and final concert of ‘Inspired, Naturally,’ the element-themed season of The SYMPHONIA, is Sunday, April 30 at 3 p.m. at Roberts Theater at Saint Andrew’s School in Boca Raton. Each concert within the series is inspired by one of the earth’s natural elements, with ‘WATER’ serving as the theme for this performance. The Symphonia’s Principal Conductor Alastair Willis will be closing out the season.


The concert repertoire includes:


ETHEL SMITH  Overture to "The Wreckers" (arr Mark Buller)

DILORENZO Jabberwocky

BEETHOVEN Pastoral Symphony

 

Willis closes the season with Ethel Smyth’s overture to The Wreckers - a wildly romantic, stirring image of the sea and pirates; DiLorenzo’s Jabberwocky which is based on the nonsensical poem by Lewis Carroll and Beethoven’s glorious Pastoral Symphony. As one of The Symphonia’s most beloved conductors, Willis is noted for his strong podium presence, and engaging and attractive personality.  


‘Inspired Naturally’ is the theme of The Symponia’s 2022-2023 concert season, featuring classic works that embody four natural elements, Fire, Earth, Wind, and Water.


Pre-Concert Conversation:

A Pre-Concert Conversation hosted by David Kim will take place from 2-2:30 p.m., giving ticket holders an opportunity to learn more about the works to be performed that afternoon. Free for concert ticket holders.
