MSO First Associate Concertmaster Ilana Setapen commands the stage with Arturo Márquez’s folk-infused violin concerto Fandango. “I had known this music since I was a child,” says Márquez, “listening to it in the cinema, on the radio, and listening to my father, a mariachi violinist (Arturo Márquez, Sr.) interpret huastecos and mariachi music.” Márquez says Fandango adheres to his “seven capital principles: tonality, modality, melody, rhythm, imaginary folk tradition, harmony, and orchestral color.” Guest conductor Asher Fisch leads this vivid program, which concludes with two Spain-inspired pieces by Ravel, as well as Turina’s Danzas fantásticas; Turina’s trio of evocative dances are set in the Aragon, Basque, and Andalusian regions of Spain.
