Flores has established himself as one of the foremost trumpeters of his generation. He was awarded First Prize in the “Maurice André” International Trumpet Competition\, the most prestigious competition of its kind\, along with top prizes in the Philip Jones and Cittá di Porcia competitions. A product of Venezuela’s renowned El Sistema music program\, Flores has performed as a soloist with leading orchestras worldwide\, including the NHK Orchestra of Japan\, the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra\, and the Philharmonic Orchestra of Kiev. \nFlores has received multiple Latin GRAMMY nominations for his albums\, which feature collaborations with major composers such as Arturo Márquez\, Paquito D’Rivera\, Roberto Sierra\, Efraín Oscher\, Christian Lindberg\, and Daniel Freiberg\, and performances with renowned orchestras including the Konzerthaus Orchester Berlin\, Arctic Philharmonic\, Real Filharmonía de Galicia\, and Orquesta Sinfónica de Minería. \n  \n  \n\nFrom Music Director Perry So\n“We begin our summer season with a blockbuster concert constructed from the powerful symphonic repertoire of our closest geographical neighbors – Latin America. Dance music is everywhere on the program\, as you would imagine\, but the essence of this music is how carefully poised it is between dance on the one hand and impeccable artistry on the other\, with the pages of these scores filled with complex historical and social undercurrents. I am always initially drawn into this music by the driving rhythms and soaring melodies but find myself digging deeper and deeper into their engagement with some of the weightiest chapters of our shared hemispheric history. We are joined in the second half by my friend and hermano\, Pacho Flores\, the trumpet virtuoso with the most beautiful\, heartbreaking tone I know\, and he brings with him two concertos written especially for him to close this season.” \n\n  \n\n\nConcert Sponsors\n  \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n  \n\n \n\n

They play video game music. Sort of. They use video game soundtracks as a jumping off point for a party\, a nonstop display of kinetic musicianship that blends contemporary art music with dozens of pop styles\, steeped in the language of the Internet. \nEstablished in 2014\, the band’s core is made of six game audio professionals that serve as the primary arrangers and performing mainstays. But\, like a frightened cat\, Discocactus can grow up to four times its normal size when threatened (or for big projects). \nEach of DiscoCactus’s members is a world-class performer in their own right. Their members have studied at some of the world’s top conservatories\, written music for the BBC National Orchestra of Wales\, toured the world with Video Games Live\, and more. You’ve heard some of them in games like Celeste\, Destiny 2\, Sid Meier’s Civilization VI\, and Final Fantasy XV. You’ve heard SEVERAL of them in Anew: The Distant Light and Mortal Kombat 11. \nWhen it’s time to play as DiscoCactus\, these six performers form like Voltron\, bringing all of their experience and power down on one glorious purpose: To make you dance! Some members have debuted operas\, some have studied Brazilian pop\, and some improvise. Together\, they combine unique perspectives to make a show that transcends genre and transforms the music  in fresh\, exciting ways. You don’t have to know a thing about video game music to enjoy DiscoCactus. You don’t even have to know a thing about music! You just need to strap in for a rollicking\, avant-garde nerd carnival. \n\n  \n  \n\n\n\n  \n\n\nConcert Sponsors\n
