Classiclectic Connection: "Make It A Double!" with Octavio Mas Arocas

Marquette Symphony Orchestra Facebook Page

"Make it a Double!" is the name of the first Marquette Symphony Orchestra concert of the 2019-20 season, and it features music of Brahms, Schubert, and living composer David Little.  The Brahms Double Concerto features violinist Scott Flavin and cellist Ross Harbaugh of the Bergonzi Trio; Schubert's Unfinished Symphony is a romantic feature for the whole orchestra; David Little's Haunted Topography is a natural addition to the lineup of romantic works.

Octavio Mas-Arocas is the Principal Conductor of the Marquette Symphony Orchestra, and he joined Kurt Hauswirth in studio today to speak about not only the first concert, but the entire 2019-20 season too:

"Make it a Double!" takes place in the Kaufman Auditorium Saturday, September 14 at 7:30pm.  Tickets are available at NMU Ticket Outlets.  The afterglow follows immediately after the performance at Kildare Irish American Pub.  More information available at marquettesymphony.org.

Kurt lives in Marquette with his family and can’t imagine living anywhere else. He loves music, games, running, being near water, and a fine cold brew coffee.
