Concert Information
Xian Zhang conductor
Xavier Foley double bass
New Jersey Symphony
-
Claude Debussy Clair de Lune
Debussy’s original piano solo, Clair de Lune, probably exists in more versions than the Beatles’ “Yesterday” and for good reason, as none before or since have captured in music the true magic of moonlight.
-
Xavier Foley Soul Bass for Double Bass and Orchestra
Sphinx competition-winner Xavier Foley is on a mission to put the double bass on the map as a virtuoso solo string instrument. In Soul Bass, he draws upon the sounds and styles of the longrunning TV show “Soul Train” and showcases every bit of the enormous solo bass range with groove and style.
-
Xavier Foley New Work for Double Bass and Orchestra (World Premiere, New Jersey Symphony Commission)
After performing his own concerto, Soul Bass, Xavier Foley will dazzle in a brand new showpiece for the double bass to cap off the first half.
-
Sergei Rachmaninoff Symphony No. 2
Melodies too numerous and beautiful to track—so don’t try. Just let this sweeping Romantic symphony, the inspiration for the song “Never Gonna Fall in Love Again,” work its magic.
