From the sprawling Venezuelan plains of Estévez’s impressionistic work to the fiery malambo of Argentinian composer Ginastera’s ballet Estancia, to Brazilian imagery in the music of Villa-Lobos, the OSM presents an exciting range of works steeped in South American colours and landscapes. Drawing from the roots of Mexican dances, Gabriela Ortiz’s radiant Trumpet Concerto will showcase OSM Principal Trumpet Paul Merkelo.
