COMPILED BY ANGELA LOPEZ AND B.J. HAMMERSTEIN, FREE PRESS STAFF WRITERS Clarkston to star on Fieri show SCOTT Network Union Woodshop will be featured on Guy Drive-Ins and On paper, the Detroit Symphony program this week appeared to be a stylistically odd assemblage: A newly composed curtain-raiser by Osvaldo Golijov, Joaquin beloved de for guitar and turbulent Symphony No. 5. But hearing these works Friday morning revealed surprising formal and emotional links that created a whole greater than the sum of its parts. A Spanish tinge that emerged in licke- ty-split trumpet passages late in flowered into the sun-drenched, Iberian soul of the Rodrigo concerto, whose mournful slow movement found a fascinating echo after intermission in the dark, funereal opening of portentous symphony.

nine-minute piece takes its inspiration from Galileo; the title comes from an astronomy treatise whose title translates to The music is filled with spacious allusions to the heavens, from fluttering strings and flutes to a melody spread through the ensemble that soars for the sky. Still, Golijov Argentine-born of Eastern European Jewish descent and usually one of our most rewarding composers sounded on autopilot. The piece so much end as peter out. In her DSO debut, young guest conductor Joana Carneiro, the Portuguese-born music director of the Berkeley (Calif.) Symphony and a former University of Michigan student, led a rather loose performance. (She would make a stronger impression after intermission.) always interesting to hear the complete Rodrigo concerto, since the heart- wrenching slow movement is so-well known through its many jazz adaptations, especially the incomparable version recorded by trumpeter Miles Davis with arranger Gil Evans on the masterpiece of But the jaunty rhythmic bounce of the first movement and tuneful neo-classicism of the finale create a very different mood.

Guitar soloist Xuefei Yang, using light amplification, played with an alluring marriage of virtuosity and emotionalism, offering cleanly articulated ornamentation and running passages but also deeply felt flamenco expression. Geoffrey Johnson also created a lovely atmosphere in his English horn solo. As an encore Yang offered an unaccompanied reading of Francisco de la that was all moon- light melody and romance. Carneiro took firm command of the Tchaikovsky Fifth. Favoring broad, sweeping gestures, she filled the music with boldly surging phrases that pushed ahead impetuously and others that relaxed in taffy-pull suspense.

There was lots of drama and surprise, even if there were also times in the opening and closing movements when the emoting turned a little wild, even crass, and the music-making sounded episodic. But Carneiro exhibited a refreshing go-for- broke quality in her ideas, and the DSO players responded with richly unified ensemble work and sterling solos by the wind principals.
