Since we first discovered Mario Lavista’s wind quintet Cinco danzas breves we were so impressed by his music that we included the piece in our standard repertoire AND began to search for more of his music. Mario Lavista has won the Premio Nacional de Artes y Ciencias, the Medalla Mozart and numerous other composition awards. He founded Pauta, one of the most important music journals in Latin America. Other Bay Area musicians will join us to perform Marsias for oboe and eight crystal glasses, Cinco danzas breves and other works.
