About this concert
Overview
Delight in Maurice Ravel’s most flavorful music. The Houston Symphony, in collaboration with Rice University’s Shepherd School of Music, will perform Ravel’s comedic one-act opera, The Spanish Hour. After the electrifying Rapsodie espagnole, we’ll close the evening with one of the most popular works ever written, Ravel’s Bolero. You’ll leave Jones Hall with the feeling you’ve spent a well deserved vacation in Seville!
