St. Hedwig Catholic Church once again rang with music and dancing on Friday, May 21. The Detroit Symphony Orchestra (DSO) performed a free 75-minute concert in the historic church that evening as part of their Detroit Neighborhood Initiative outreach to the community.

Conductor Enrico Lopez-Yañez, nationally known for his unique style of audience engagement, gave both English and Spanish commentary as he led the DSO in traditional, inventive and popular music. The featured pieces were written by composers from Brazil, Chili, Cuba, Venezuela and Mexico. Two dances performed during the concert by the Ballet Folkloric Moyocoyani Ezel in traditional colorful garb and dazzling smiles were a feast for the eyes and ears.

This was the third year that the DSO performed at St. Hedwig’s. The venue, with its marble columns and stained glass lent itself to the vibrant atmosphere. The concert ended with a lively rendition of Guantanamera that had guests swaying in rhythm. It was truly a delight for the ears, eyes and spirit!

Bailando en los Corredores

La Orquesta Sinfónica de Detroit regresó a la iglesia Santa Eduviges

El viernes 21 de mayo, la Iglesia Católica Santa Eduviges, una vez más se deleitó con música y baile. La Orquesta Sinfónica de Detroit (DSO) llevó a cabo un concierto gratuito de 75 minutos en la histórica iglesia, como parte de su iniciativa de extensión a la comunidad de la Iniciativa Vecinal de Detroit.

El director Enrico López-Yáñez, conocido a nivel nacional por su estilo único de involucrar a la audiencia, brindó comentarios en inglés y español mientras dirigía el DSO en música tradicional, inventiva y popular. Las piezas destacadas fueron escritas por compositores de Brasil, Chile, Cuba, Venezuela y México. Dos danzas interpretadas durante el concierto por el Ballet Folklórico Moyocoyani Ezel con coloridos trajes típicos y sonrisas deslumbrantes fueron un festín para los sentidos.

Ha sido el tercer año que se han presentado en la iglesia. El lugar, con sus columnas de mármol y vitrales, se prestó para crear una atmósfera vibrante. El concierto terminó con una animada interpretación de Guantanamera que hizo que los invitados se movieran al ritmo de la música. ¡Fue realmente un deleite para los sentidos y el espíritu!
