# Pacho Flores and Hernández-Silva with the Bogota Philharmonic

Pacho Flores and Hernández-Silva return together to the (https://filarmonicabogota.gov.co/eventos/temporada-ofb-orquesta-filarmonica-de-bogota-pacho-flores-director-y-solista-invitado/) for a program that includes the *Concerto for corno da caccia*, by J. B. G. Neruda, the Colombian premiere of *Cantos y Revueltas* by Pacho Flores himself, which both artists recorded for the Deutsche Grammophon label, and Mendelssohn’s *Symphony No. 4*. It will be on Friday, April 26. Previously, Pacho Flores will be the only protagonist in a concert in which he will appear as player and conductor of the Brass Ensemble of the Bogotá Philharmonic. The program will present, together with works by Copland and Dukas and arrangements of works by Gershwin, Sarasate, Piazzolla and Pacho Flores himself, the absolute premiere of *Musas y Resuello*, *Symphonic movement for brass ensemble and percussion*, a piece commissioned by the Bogotá Philharmonic to the Spanish-Venezuelan trumpeter. This concert will take place on Friday, April 17, after a week in which Pacho Flores will participate in various educational activities and a masterclasses.

Pacho Flores and Hernández-Silva have just recently presented Cantos y Revueltas* together with the (/?p=9580), a concert that the *(https://scherzo.es/badajoz-la-orquesta-de-extremadura-venezolaneando/)* magazine collaborator Justo Romero defined as overwhelming, luminous and radiant: “The confluence of three Venezuelan talents such as conductor Manuel Hernández- Silva (…), trumpet player Pacho Flores (can someone play better?) and the virtuoso of the Venezuelan *cuatro* Leo Rondón (eighth notes and rhythm in vein) turned the tenth subscription program of the Extremadura Orchestra into a feast for the senses in which music was happiness and emotion. Overwhelming, yes, but, above all, joyous and brimming with art, inspiration, talent and fine quality.”

Both artists have a dense history of collaborations full of memorable evenings, such as the premiere of *Cantos y Revueltas *with the Real Filharmonía de Galicia, whose live recording was later published as an album and led to further presentations with the orchestras of Malaga, Navarre, Murcia or the above mentioned Extremadura, but also the premieres of *Danzas Latinas* by Efraín Oscher (RFG) and *Salseando* by Roberto Sierra (OSRM), or the memorable version of the *Concierto de otoño* by Arturo Márquez (RFG). Still ahead are new premieres of works by composers such as Daniel Freiberg with the Arctic Philharmonic, Roberto Sierra with the Orchestra National de Bordeaux Aquitaine, and the *Concerto Venezolano* by Paquito D’Rivera with a Spanish orchestra to be soon announced.
