So elated to return to where it all began!!!! The birthplace of #fandango With 2 @latingrammys 40 performances with 16 different orchestras since 2021, the timeless and soulful music of #arturomarquez is celebrated on September 2nd @hollywoodbowl @laphil @peermusic_classical @christianvasquezu 🥳♥️🎻🎶💪🏼

After watching the Masterworks Four: Heroic Spirit concert at SCF Neel Performing Arts Center Jan. 30, I think we’ve identified the performance that stands above all others of the Sarasota Orchestra in recent years.
Violinist Anne Akiko Meyers’ stunning virtuosity in Arturo Márquez’s Fandango for Violin and Orchestra combined with the all-out commitment of musicians and conductor splashed all the treasures of music before us. Everyone begged for more. 🥳
Meyers leaned into the heart and subtleties of the music, seemingly becoming one with the whole. With so much beauty drawing us into the Folia Tropical and Plegaria movements, the final Fandanquito shot a jolt of electricity through the hall on the campus of the State College of Florida.
Thrill-factor tempos and virtuosic challenges seemed hardly a concern for Meyers, so securely in control of it all.
How I wish we could have gotten an encore of all three movements. Music new to our ears, as this Florida premiere was for nearly all, surely deserves repetition.
