Young Musicians Foundation’s Debut Orchestra will perform at The Broad Stage.

Experience a repertoire of classical music throughout the ages on Saturday, April 17, 4 p.m. at The Broad Stage, 1310 11th Street, Santa Monica, CA when the world-renowned Young Musicians Foundation Debut Orchestra performs “Revolutionary Voices†.

The free concert will feature the works of Carl Maria von Weber and Ludwig van Beethoven, as well as modern composers Arvo Pärt, Charles Fox and Michael Daugherty.

Maestro Case Scaglione notes, “I find it fitting that the YMF Debut Orchestra is concluding its 55th season with a program entitled “Revolutionary Voices”. Classical music’s course has always been driven by composers who have had the courage to push the envelope and think outside the box. YMF has always searched for and supported these composers. From the time of Igor Stravinsky all the way to Charlie Fox today, YMF has carried on this tradition proudly. In addition to a world premiere by Mr. Fox we will also perform the music of Weber, Pärt, Michael Daugherty, and Beethoven. Each one of these pieces employs a compositional technique that was bold and fresh for the time. Michael Daugherty’s Red Cape tango from 1994 brings the comic book character Superman to life while Beethoven throws us even deeper into the jowls of romanticism with his wonderfully evocative 5th symphony. And all of this performed by the
world-class Debut Orchestra. It is going to be a musical event to behold.â€

The five dramatic musical pieces are considered cutting edge examples of their times. The concert will begin with Weber’s Der Freischütz, considered to be the first important German Romantic opera. Festina Lente by Pärt brings drama to the recounting of the beginning of the Christian era with violas, violins and bass all play in harmony at varying tempos. Fox will premiere his Arabesque For Orchestra. Daugherty’s Red Cape Tango ties American pop culture directly into the classical arena. It is the final movement of his Metropolis Symphony, a work inspired by the life and times of the comic book character Superman. Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5 in C minor, is one of the most popular and often played symphonies. It is considered groundbreaking both in terms of its technical and emotional impact.
