Orozco-Estrada will lead the orchestra in incredible masterworks that will be featured in the tour including Dvorak's Symphony No. 7, a work that was featured in Orozco-Estrada's critically-acclaimed inaugural recording with the Houston Symphony, and Bernstein's Three Dance Episodes from On the Town as the orchestra continues the season-long centennial celebration of this iconic composer.
