Ensemble Monterey Chamber Orchestra Presents “Dressed to the Nines”

The Ensemble Monterey Chamber Orchestra presents “Dressed to the Nines,” a concert of delightful nonets for strings, woodwinds and brass.   “Dressed to the Nines” is presented at the Pacific Grove Performing Arts Center on Saturday, November 17th at 8 PM, and at Santa Cruz’s First Congregational Church on Sunday, November 18th at 7 PM.  Music Director John Anderson presents “Insights from the Conductor” one hour before each concert.  The concert begins with Joseph Rheinberger’s beautifully romantic Nonet – a miniature symphony in scope and a cornerstone of Romantic era chamber music.  Next is Walter Piston’s Divertimento.  Although he was a major 20th Century composer, Piston’s Divertimento is a study in classical forms and balance.  For dessert comes Clark McAllister’s Lou’s Mountain Bread Suite.  Commissioned by Ensemble Monterey in 2004, Lou’s Mountain Bread Suite is a bouquet of traditional American folk songs arranged with grace, wit and great rhythmic energy by one of America’s most versatile contemporary composers.

Tickets for Ensemble Monterey are available by calling 333-1283, or by visiting www.ensemblemonterey.org
