The Houston Symphony's November calendar features an exciting lineup of concerts including the world premiere of Houston Symphony commission, La Triste Historia - Animated Film + Music, a multimedia concert experience that celebrates the Mexican tradition of Day of the Dead today, November 1 and November 2 and 3.

On November 1, 2 and 3, the Houston Symphony will present the world premiere of La Triste Historia, a one-of-a-kind multimedia project tied to one of the most important and meaningful holidays in the Hispanic community, El Dia de los Muertos or Day of the Dead. The project features a newly commissioned symphony, Ofrenda a los muertos, written by renowned Mexican composer, Juan Trigos, paired with a fantastical animated film created by the London-based animation company, ticktockrobot. The story tells a tragic, dreamlike tale of two young lovers, separated by death during the Mexican Revolution, who later reunite through the celebration and ceremony of Day of the Dead. Executive Producer Duncan Copp, of the Symphony's HD Odyssey films, and Academy Award nominated producer and writer Ben Young Mason have teamed up with the Houston Symphony to bring this story to life.
