A graceful program inspired by the beautiful surroundings of Longwood Gardens. Faure’s elegant incidental music was originally written for the theater. Respighi was inspired by three Botticelli paintings. Caroline Shaw, a contemporary American composer, took her inspiration from a string quartet of Haydn. We complete the performance with Boccherini’s charming Cello Concerto, performed by Benett Tsai. Concert tickets also include admission to Longwood Gardens for the day.
