Cape May Music Festival: Bay Atlantic Symphony “Alpine Jazz Adventure”

Event Details

“Alpine Jazz Adventure”
Celebrity cellist Amit Peled joins the Bay Atlantic Symphony and will play a work he has long championed, the eclectic concerto by Austrian pianist/composer/philosopher Friederich Gulda. The work is for cello and wind orchestra with a jazz rhythm section and bounces between swing and funk, to rustic Austrian folk melodies. It is tuneful and dramatic, with wildly expressive passages. The evening’s program begins with one of the greatest of all wind serenades, by Mozart. The audience will also have the joy of experiencing Mr. Peled’s intensely expressive artistry performing solo Bach.
