The peripatetic James Gaffigan conducts Charleston’s Spoleto Festival Orchestra in a crackling performance of Prokofiev’s Symphony No. 5 in B-flat and the Dance of the Seven Veils by Richard Strauss. Another concert, featuring Piazzolla's take on the Four Seasons, and Tchaikovsky’s Serenade for Strings rounds out the program, hosted by WDAV’s Mike McKay and Rachel Stewart. This episode from Spoleto is a co-production with South Carolina ETV Radio.
