Orquesta Sinfónica del Estado de México was established in 1971 to promote music as a means of union and identification among Mexicans. Based in the city of Toluca, the orchestra reaches all corners of the republic, and has toured the world. Their repertoire and extensive discography span classical masterworks, rich music from Spain, and newly commissioned works by Mexican composers. This concert program will focus on the lush music of composers Manuel de Falla, Jerónimo Giménez, Joaquín Rodrigo, and Joaquín Turina, and will feature guitar soloist Alfonso Moreno.
