The musicians in the group each have rich and extensive experience in Argentine tango\, jazz\, classical and contemporary music\, and other world and popular music styles\, all of which can be heard on their two albums\, Exótica Flor (2023) and The Other Side of My Heart (2018)\, both available on all streaming platforms. \n\n\n\n“Not Your Average Folk Contest 2021″ Grand Prize Winner (NC Folk Festival) and “World Music” category winner of Music-At-the-Museum Contest 2021 (NC Museum of Art)\, the Lorena Guillén Tango Ensemble has been featured on TV performances for NC PBS channel and Fox8News as well as live radio programs such as WUNC’s “The State of Things” with Frank Stasio (NPR affiliate in Chapel Hill\, NC)\, KUNM’s “Corazón Tanguero” with Cristina Baccin (NPR affiliate in Albuquerque\, NM)\, WFDD “Triad Arts” (Winston Salem\, NC)\, “Musicaldo” (KGLP 91.7\, Gallup\, NM)\, and Radio DAMus (Buenos Aires\, Argentina). \n\n\n\nOver the years\, the ensemble has presented its music at various venues: Kleinhans Music Hall (Buffalo\, NY)\, MusicBox Theater and Folk Research Center (Saint Lucia\, West Indies)\, Frick Museum Summer Concerts (PA)\, Center Stage Series at the Sangre de Cristo Auditorium (CO)\, Winston-Salem’s FIESTA Festival\, Music Carolina SummerFest\, NC Museum of Art\, Greensboro’s NC Folk Festival\, Creative Greensboro Concert Series\, Blowing Rock Art & History Museum Summer Concert Series\,  Western Piedmont Symphony Concert Series\, and Los Angeles’ Alvas Showroom (Los Angeles\, CA).  \n\n\n\nThis September 2023\, the LGTE will embark on their first concert tour to Argentina\, with shows at various venues and a featured presentation at the Familia Club Atlético Fernández Fierro Tango Festival. \n\n\n\nThe group frequently collaborates with regional Latino organizations\, tango-dance organizations and youth orchestras and choirs. The Other Side of My Heart reflects that commitment: an oral-history multi-media piece based on interviews with Latina immigrants to NC. In the Embrace of Tango Project explored the crossed-path between Argentine tango and Jewish-diaspora culture and involved workshops with the Triangle-Jewish-Chorale\, the UNCG University Chorale\, and Durham-Tango-Dance. \n\n\n\nMany of these creative initiatives have been generously funded by grants from the following organizations\, which have supported the group’s creation of original works\, audio recording\, video recording\, and implementation of workshops: ArtsGreensboro “Regional Artist Project\,” NC arts Council\, New-Music USA\, and “EDI Grant” from the UNCG College of Visual and performing Arts. \n\n\n\n\nUNCG Orchestras\nThe vibrant UNCG Orchestra program has long been recognized for performance excellence\, adventurous programming\, and high artistic standards.

Composed between 1817 and 1821 and premiered in Berlin\, this three act Singspiel with spoken dialogue draws on German folk legend and early Romantic interests in the supernatural\, the natural world\, and the moral tension between good and evil. At its center is Max\, a huntsman whose confidence and marksmanship fail him at the very moment he must win a shooting contest\, declared by Cuno\, Agathe’s father and hereditary forester\, to marry Agathe and become his rightful successor. In his desperation to improve himself and secure his future\, Max is persuaded by his brooding companion Caspar\, who has already forfeited his soul to Samiel\, the Black Huntsman\, into entering a Faustian bargain. Together they summon seven magic bullets\, six of which Max controls\, while the seventh belongs to Samiel and will strike whatever target the demonic power chooses.  \n\n\n\nThe Music \n\n\n\n The Overture condenses the opera’s dramatic trajectory into a concentrated musical narrative that foregrounds its central moral question concerning the conflict between good and evil. It begins with broad orchestral gestures and a noble horn chorale that evoke the hunting community and the forest environment\, before the atmosphere shifts suddenly with tremolo strings and a diminished seventh chord associated with Samiel’s diabolical presence. The principal fast section unfolds in sonata form. Its turbulent first theme\, derived from Max’s Act I aria\, reflects his unsettled and darker character as it moves from agitated C minor writing into a grim\, marchlike quality. In contrast stands a luminous second theme in C major\, taken from Agathe’s Act II aria\, initially shaped by antiphonal exchanges between woodwinds\, low strings\, and brass that suggest lingering uncertainty. By the conclusion\, however\, C major ultimately prevails over C minor. Agathe’s loving and redemptive music triumphs over Samiel’s sinister influence\, and the Overture\, like the opera\, resolves its opening question by affirming that love and grace overcome the forces of darkness. \n\n\n\nNote by Jordan Owen \n\n\n\nViolin Concerto in D minor\, op. 47\n\n\n\nJean Sibelius composed his Violin Concerto in D minor\, op.47\, between 1902 and 1904\, marking his only completed foray into the genre due to a naturally solemn disposition. While encouraged by German virtuoso Willy Burmester to write the piece\, Sibelius was forced by financial strain and personal turbulence to move the premiere to a date that Burmester could not accommodate\, leading the offended violinist to never perform it.  Over a barely audible murmur in the strings\, the solo violin introduces the principal theme of the first movement\, a dark\, sighing idea that gradually gains intensity. The theme conveys both longing and passion and returns multiple times throughout the movement. The composer’s stylistic features are evident throughout\, including somber orchestral colors\, swelling brass chords\, slow harmonic motion\, and expressive melodic writing. \n\n\n\nNote by Jordan Owen \n\n\n\nHorqin Rhapsody for Orchestra\n\n\n\nHorqin Rhapsody is an orchestral work composed in the Mongolian style. The music is magnificent and grand\, characterized by a tempestuous performance that evokes the vast and majestic landscape of the grassland. The piece is divided into four sections: \n\n\n\n\nIntroduction: Ancient horns awaken the slumbering grassland.\n\n\n\nFirst Section: Depicts a magnificent scene of herds of horses galloping across the plains\, stirring and awe-inspiring.\n\n\n\nSecond Section: Portrays the profound and serene expanse of the grassland.\n\n\n\nThird Section: Presents a vision of nature and humanity in perfect harmony\, celebrating the passionate\, unrestrained\, and optimistic spirit of the grassland people in the face of hardship.\n\n\n\n\nHorsehead Fiddle Concerto: Capriccio on a Pastoral Theme\n\n\n\nCapriccio on a Pastoral Theme depicts the vast pastures\, gentle winds\, clear skies\, and serene waters of the northern frontier of the motherland. The piece is composed in a rhapsodic style and free form. Its inspiration is drawn from the pastoral songs of the grassland\, incorporating traditional Mongolian folk songs praising the Mongolian horse. The work skillfully blends the horsehead fiddle with symphonic accompaniment\, celebrating the grassland people’s love for their homeland and their efforts in building a magnificent northern frontier. It also reflects their noble inner world\, dedicated to ecological preservation and harmonious coexistence with nature. \n\n\n\nAcademic Festival Overture\n\n\n\nJohannes Brahms came from a working-class family in Hamburg. Money was tight. To help make ends meet\, Brahms quit school at fourteen and headed to the seaport to work as a barroom musician. Brahms was unlikely to attend University\, however his duo-partner\, the violinist Joseph Joachim\, invited Brahms into University life\, over a couple of summer months in Göttingen\, while Joachim and his friends took Philosophy and History classes.(It was to Joachim that he would late dedicate his monumental violin concerto.) It was during these summer months that Brahms acquainted himself with beer halls and student drinking songs. By 1879\, Brahms was an established composer when the University of Breslau presented Brahms with an honorary Doctor of Philosophy. In return\, the University requested him to compose a piece as a musical “thank you”. Brahms did not appreciate this and instead of the traditional symphony the academics expected\, they received a beautifully orchestrate medley of student drinking songs that has become one of Brahms’ best-known works. In Academic Festival Overture\, Brahms skillfully weaves together four traditional beer-hall songs that would have been well-known to German university students of his era. The first\, “Wir hatten gebauet ein stattliches Haus” (“We have built a stately house”) is a majestic trumpet chorale that carried significant political weight; associated with student groups advocating for German unification. This is followed by the lyrical “Der Landesvater” (“Father of our Country”) in the strings and the humorous\, bassoon led “Was kommt dort von der Höh? (“What comes from afar?”)\, a lighthearted tune traditionally used during freshman initiations. The piece culminates in a triumphant full-orchestra rendition of “Gaudeamus igitur” (“Let us rejoice\, therefore”) a popular 13th-century commencement song that elaborates the rowdy\, carefree spirit of student life.  \n\n\n\nNote by Jordan Owen \n\n\n\nBack to Program \n\n\n\n\nAbout Suyahan\n\n\n\n\n“My grandfather and my great-grandfather played the Mongolian four-stringed fiddle\, told Mongolian stories\, and sang traditional songs in the village. Then\, when I was nine\, I first heard someone play the horsehead fiddle to accompany a folk song. From that moment I was deeply captivated by the sound! I fell in love with it!”  \n\n\n\nBorn in Tongliao\, Inner Mongolia\, China to ethnic Mongolian parents\, Suyahan was fascinated from a young age by the expressiveness of the Morin Khuur—(Horsehead Fiddle or Matou Qin). After undergraduate study\, he went to Ulaanbaatar\, Mongolia to complete his MM and then his DMA at the Mongolia National University of Education.  \n\n\n\nProf. Suyahan has won numerous accolades for his performances in China\, and he has received many teaching excellence awards from the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region during his teaching at the Inner Mongolia University for the Nationalities (IMUN). \n\n\n\nBack to Program \n\n\n\n\nAbout Siana Wong\n\n\n\n\nSiana Wong is a native of Greensboro\, North Carolina\, with Malaysian heritage.

Cozart is a highly accomplished artist-scholar and documentarian whose passion for Painting and drawing endures despite his colorblindness. His body of figurative work is deeply rooted in his personal experiences and introspections\, with a thematic focus on race and identity in Black America. Through thoughtful and deliberate use of symbolic objects in his imagery\, Cozart addresses the complexities and nuances of stereotypes affecting black men and women\, especially as they exist within the black community itself. \n\n\n\nTo read more about Steven M.
