Boléro, West Side Story, An American in Paris - Pehlivanian

The Orchestra I Pomeriggi Musicali brings a vibrant program of 20th-century classics to Milano, blending the rhythmic intensity of Ravel's Boléro with the jazzy energy of Bernstein's West Side Story and Gershwin's An American in Paris. Audiences can expect a dynamic orchestral performance that spans from the hypnotic crescendo of Boléro to the Broadway-infused melodies of West Side Story, all under the baton of a skilled conductor.

This concert offers a journey through three iconic works that capture the spirit of their eras. Gershwin's An American in Paris evokes the bustling streets of the French capital with its bluesy themes, while Bernstein's suite from West Side Story brings the drama of the musical to life. The program culminates in Ravel's masterpiece, a single crescendo that builds from a whisper to a thunderous climax.
