LACA News:
An exciting young chamber orchestra, Delirium Musicum, will perform in Los Alamos at 7 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 12, presented by the Los Alamos Concert Association (LACA).
Recently awarded three Audience Choice Awards by San Francisco Classical Voice, the self-directed ensemble will offer fresh interpretations of old masters juxtaposed with adventuresome new repertoire.
The program features new takes on two beloved Baroque masterpieces, Summer from Max Richter’s wildly popular Vivaldi Recomposed and Michi Wiancka’s arrangement of the La Folia Variations by Geminiani.
Completing the program will be a Shostakovich Chamber Symphony, and a recent work by American composer Gabriela Lena Frank entitled Leyendas: An Andean Walkabout.
Founded in 2018 by the ensemble’s Artistic Director and violinist Etienne Gara, Delirium Musicum quickly garnered critical acclaim. The Los Angeles Times described the ensemble as “…a step ahead and ready for anything – virtuosic and versatile.”
The concert will take place in the Duane Smith Auditorium located at 1300 Diamond Drive on the campus of Los Alamos High School.
Tickets ($35) are available electronically at www.losalamosconcert.org, in Los Alamos at the Fuller Lodge Arts Center and at Smith’s in Los Alamos and White Rock. Tickets for young people ages 6-18 are free. LACA also offers free tickets to all music educators in Northern New Mexico who register at https://losalamosconcert.org/tickets/.
