| BEST OF MOZART |
|
|
| Beyond the mystique of Mozart—his astonishing precocity and early demise—lies the music itself, revealed here in its kaleidoscopic moods. A heavenly serenity infuses the themes of the Clarinet Concerto and his last symphony, “Jupiter,” while his impetuous First Symphony, composed at the age of 8, bursts with youthful energy. |

| BEST OF WATER |
|
|
| Elusive and enticing, water captures the imagination. Handel’s festive Water Music paints a scene of courtly elegance, while Smetana’s “The Moldau” reminds us of the powerful nostalgia that a river can evoke. Strauss’s lilting Blue Danube Waltz is famous for its appearance in the movie 2001; Mendelssohn’s “Fingal’s Cave” vividly depicts the rugged coast of Scotland. |

| BEST OF SPANISH FLAIR |

|
| This sizzling program reveals the soul of Iberia. Romantic selections from Bizet’s Carmen and Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranjuez offer a view from the Old World. Latin-American rhythms pulse through Gershwin’s Cuban Overture, Copland’s El Salón México and Falla’s Three-Cornered Hat. |

| BEST OF BALLET |
|
|
| Ballet has the power to transcend time, place and even the force of gravity. It can tell stories or simply express the essence of music. “Best of Ballet” brings together an alluring selection of choreographic favorites, including excerpts from The Nutcracker, The Firebird, Appalachian Spring, Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun and Fancy Free. |
