Conducted by Josefino Chino Toledo, the program follows a single thread: how composers reshape the music they inherit. It opens with three reworkings of Bach - Stokowski's ๐˜Š๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ง๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜Œ๐˜ข๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ ๐˜Š๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ข, Hindemith's ๐˜™๐˜ข๐˜จ๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ, and Toledo's world premiere of ๐˜‰๐˜ข๐˜ค๐˜ฉ-๐˜‰๐˜ข๐˜ค๐˜ฉ-'๐˜›๐˜ฐ๐˜ฉ. The second half turns to the late Romantic era, moving from the warmth of Reineckeโ€™s ๐˜Š๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ค๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ ๐˜ง๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ ๐˜๐˜ญ๐˜ถ๐˜ต๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜–๐˜ณ๐˜ค๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ณ๐˜ข, ๐˜–๐˜ฑ. 283, featuring BALIK-UPSO artist Mark Kenedy Rocas as flute soloist, to the sweeping drama of Tchaikovskyโ€™s ๐˜š๐˜บ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜บ ๐˜•๐˜ฐ. 4 ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ ๐˜ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ, ๐˜–๐˜ฑ. 36 to close the evening.

Across the program, old and new sit side by side: the masters reimagined, the Romantic orchestra at full voice, and music that keeps changing shape long after it was written.
