We hope you’ll join us for Gershwin’s An American in Paris & Copland’s Rodeo

Line dance down the aisles to Aaron Copland’s Rodeo featuring the iconic “Hoe-Down.” Experience the streets of Paris through an ingenious sonic world created by Gershwin. Marvel at the harmonically bountiful sound of Principal Harpist Alexis Colner in Jennifer Higdon’s GRAMMY® Award-Winning Harp Concerto. And witness the world premiere of Curtis Stewart’s new work inspired by Black religious music and experiences, this program celebrates the great American composers of the past, present, and future.
