Slovakian-born conductor Martin Majkut, one of six RCO Music Director candidates, makes his Reno debut with a concert spanning continents and centuries. The first half opens with a Baroque Italian gem before moving into one of the best works for chamber orchestra by Argentinean composer Alberto Ginastera. Virtuoso soloist Bella Hristova joins the orchestra in the second half for a lovely work from Majkut’s home country, and Beethoven’s glorious, transcendent Violin Concerto.
