Continuing the BSO's exploration of Caribbean stories and music, the Puerto Rico Symphony Orchestra makes its Symphony Hall debut under the direction of Maximiano Valdés. One of three non-BSO orchestras featured this season, their performance highlights the vibrant musical traditions of Puerto Rico and beyond. This concert is part of our E Pluribus Unum: From Many, One exploration, honoring the diverse voices that shape our nation’s musical heritage, and will include works by Angélica Negrón, Roberto Sierra, and a selection of Puerto Rico’s rich popular musical traditions.
