Now in its 44th season, the Florida Orchestra has delighted ears across the Tampa Bay area with time-tested masterworks and sprightly pops concerts. Music director Stefan Sanderling will lead the orchestra through “Pictures at an Exhibition,” with three painting-inspired melodies, while Respighi’s Trittico Botticelliano pays homage to three great works by Botticelli. Hindemith’s Mathis der Maler tells the story of the Reformation artist Matthias Grünewald as he struggles with his faith and the atrocities of the German Peasants’ Revolt. Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition tickles eardrums with tone poems that recreate the experience of strolling through a gallery of the works of Russian artist Victor Hartmann or a long, relaxing bath in oil paint. A preshow talk starting an hour before curtain helps audience members gain a better grasp of the music, with facts about the composer, tips on what to listen for, and warnings about lycanthropic tubists in the event of a full moon.
Directed by New York Pops music director Steven Reineke, “Music for Lovers” regales showgoers with romance-evoking tunes from heartstring-strumming crooners including Barry White, Henry Mancini, and Cole Porter. Guest singers Mike Eldred and Betsy Wolfe will lend their lush vocals to the evenings’ melodies, gently caressing bass lines and enforcing no-beverage policies with glass-shattering soprano notes.
