ROCO In Concert: Seismic

September 29, 2023 @ 8:00 pm

(713) 665-2700

ROCO kicks off its 19th season with SEISMIC, an opening concert of epic proportions, featuring the full 40-piece chamber orchestra in two ROCO-commissioned world premieres and an exhilarating tale of love, intrigue, and adventure! Anthony DiLorenzo’s ROCO world premiere commission Techtonal, featuring AI text-informed animation by composer and artist Cynthia Lee Wong and based on the acclaimed book TheTelling Image by renowned documentary filmmaker Lois Stark, compels the audience to rethink, re-hear and re-visualize how they view the world. Go on a flight of fancy in ROCO’s commission The Nightingale by Kevin Lau—recently released as our first-ever children’s book, and heard in a new scoring for full chamber orchestra—then head to the exotic lands of The Arabian Nights as Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov’s symphonic suite Scheherazade whisks audiences away through ravishing, vibrantly orchestrated scenes.
