Ancient Airs

Renowned for its luminous string sound, the Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia shines in a program celebrating the lush versatility of the string orchestra. Respighi’s Ancient Airs and Dances, Suite No. III, David Diamond’s lyrical Rounds for String Orchestra, and Leonard Bernstein’s masterful orchestral arrangement of Beethoven’s String Quartet No. 16, Op. 135 come together in an evening of warmth, refinement, and extraordinary artistry.
