The Southcoast Symphony will present 'Viva Espana!' on March 15. Dr. Manny Alvarez will conduct the 4 p.m. concert at the Cathedral of St. Luke and St. Paul, 126 Coming St., downtown Charleston. The performance is dedicated to the memory of Dr. and Mrs. George Durst. Classical guitarist Christopher Teves will return to the Cathedral of St. Luke and St. Paul with a performance of Rodrigo's 'Fantasia para un gentilhombre.' The Spanish theme continues with orchestral performances of Rimsky-Korsakoff's exotic 'Capriccio Espagnol' and Villa-Lobos' 'Aria (Cantilena).' William Grant Still's 'Danzas de Panama' and Hector Berlioz's 'Ungarischer Marsch' completes the program.
