Richard Strauss' Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme suite was one of his own favorite scores, an absolute jewel of incidental music that combines the composer's romanticism with his love of the Baroque music of Jean-Baptiste Lully. D. Wilson Ochoa has created a new symphonic orchestral suite from Strauss' opulent Ariadne auf Naxos, enabling the orchestra to revel in music of extreme beauty and sensuous luxury, studded with gorgeous instrumental solos and the composer's incomparable blend of poignancy, humor and melodic richness.
