The SLS welcomes many friends, Romans and countrymen to the stage for our November concert. Our annual side-by-side event will feature young artists playing alongside seasoned veterans for the Roman Carnival Overture by Hector Berlioz. The theme continues with the rest of the program with Khatchaturian’s Adagio from Spartacus and Debussy’s seldom heard symphonic fragments from his unfinished opera, Le Martyre de Saint Sebastien. Music by the most famous Roman composer of all ends the program, with a rousing finale—-Respighi’s Belkis, Queen of Sheba Suite. Get your marching sandals ready and join your Salt Lake Symphony for the march into the past. The Legions depart on Saturday, November 12, 2016 at Libby Gardner Concert Hall.
