About This Event
A musical postcard from America. Dvo艡谩k鈥檚 鈥楴ew World鈥� Symphony is charged with nostalgia, its lyrical warmth offering a striking contrast to the zesty contemporary drama of Adolphus Hailstork鈥檚 An American Port of Call 鈥� a musical portrait of a busy port city 鈥� and the transcendent peace of Jennifer Higdon鈥檚 Blue Cathedral 鈥� 鈥榓 symbolic doorway into and out of this world鈥�. Venezuelan trumpet virtuoso Pacho Flores is the soloist in Arturo M谩rquez鈥檚 vibrant and tune-filled Concierto de oto帽o.
