Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons at Count Basie Center for the Arts

Xian Zhang conductor
Robert Ingliss oboe
Eric Wyrick violin
New Jersey Symphony

The spotlight shines on New Jersey Symphony musicians! Reena Esmail’s wildly colorful overture RE|Member came to life during the pandemic and celebrates the regathering of musicians, and (spoiler!) has a fun bit of stage wizardry for oboe. The singing oboe of our magnificent principal Robert Ingliss takes pride of place in Strauss’ Oboe Concerto, written in the hopeful weeks after WWII. And Concertmaster Eric Wyrick will spark springtime hope in every heart from the first notes of Vivaldi's The Four Seasons.
