SOUTHWEST TOUR - March 4-11, 2012

Captivating Spanish and Italian love songs, castanets and driving foot percussion make this a memorable evening for classical, baroque and folk audiences. Nell Snaidas draws us into her world of 17th-century ballads, while Spanish dancer Steve Player sets sparks flying with daring improvisations. Passionate sonatas by Merula, Uccellini and Castello reach a redhot finish with Sorrell’s arrangement of Boccherini’s Fandango Quintet.
