Cal Poly Arab Music Ensemble to Perform with Guest Artists Nov. 21
Oct 27, 2015
The Cal Poly Symphony will perform three works inspired by nature at its Fall Concert. Titled “Back to Nature,” the concert will begin with Felix Mendelssohn’s overture to “The Hebrides.” In 1829, the composer traveled through Scotland, visiting the Hebrides Islands. The main melody of the overture was sketched at the beginning of his two-day visit to the islands and depicts the undulating sea. Although inspired in part by the Hebrides, much of the work on this overture was completed in Rome.
