LateRooms.com - Bilbao Orkestra Sinfonikoa to Play in January

    BILBAO, SPAIN, December 19, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- A performance by the Bilbao Orkestra Sinfonikoa is sure to be a treat for fans of string music, particularly since the group have lined up a selection of cracking tunes to play.

The concert will take place at Bilbao's Teatro Arriaga on January 9th 2010 and will see the band tackle tunes by Astor Piazzolla, Michael Nyman and Philip Glass.

This star-studded playlist should ensure that the show is memorable for hotel Bilbao guests who attend the gig.

It will see a string quartet interpret the three composers and delight the audience with their skill.

Argentine composer Piazzolla is widely seen as having revolutionised the tango genre by introducing elements of jazz and classical to his tunes.

Meanwhile, Nyman is likely to be familiar to a wider audience as his name often appears in the credits of films, since he has created something of a niche for himself in movie scores.

Attendees will see his String Quartet Number One piece performed.

Glass's String Quartet Number Three, Mishima will also be played. The composer was one of the most influential figures of his time and his music is often described as being minimalist.

Tickets for this stunning show can be bought at the box office, by phone or online, with prices ranging from EUR7 (GBP5.95) to EUR10.

The performance begins at 12:00 local time.
