The ASU Symphony Orchestra celebrates the beginning of the spring season with one the early 20th century’s lesser-known treasures, Lili Boulanger’s "D'un matin de printemps" ("Of a Spring Morning"), and continues with Rimsky Korsakov’s "Capriccio Espagnol," a virtuosic and sparkling fantasy on Spanish themes. Symphony No. 4, Tchaikovsky’s powerful drama of the struggle with the inescapable power of fate concludes the concert.
