In the mood for a thought provoking and intriguing night of music?

How about coming to an orchestra concert with no violins? Challenge your concept of sound and orchestral music on March 6th with our
Brahms Serenade
performance.
It's a real cello-bration.

The first half of the concert is entirely dedicated to the cello. We open with a minimalist, contemporary piece by visionary Steve Reich called Cello Counterpoint, which phases a small orchestra of cellos in and out
of sync with each other for a very cool and unique experience. Then, we're off to Buenos Aires compliments of composer Heitor Villa-Lobos
and his Bachianas brasileiras No. 1, a tropical study in Brazilian folk tunes. After intermission, the violas, basses, and winds join the cellos for a performance of Johannes Brahms' Serenade No. 2, which is a wooden, earthy, deep piece of music like you've never heard before.

Ready to feel fancy?

Put on an outfit to make you feel elegant and join us for a fancy night of quintessential orchestral music at our April 10th concert, Mozartiana!

Be transported to a simpler time when De Ann Letourneau (Las Vegas Philharmonic's Concertmaster) joins the RSO in a performance of
Mozart's 5th Violin Concerto. Revel in the mastery and technique of a world-class player performing a timeless masterpiece. Then, we'll present the Overture to Don Giovanni, which Mozart wrote the morning of the opera's premiere! To close out the night, hear a Romantic take on that same overture as RSO performs Pyotr Tchiakovsky's Suite No. 4,
"Mozartiana,"
 a piece he wrote for the 100th anniversary of the opera Don Giovanni.
