We feature the strings in a distinctive concert combining classical favorites with, diverse and eclectic dances and a moving autobiography. Amy Beach and William Grant Still highlight the range and joy of string composition while
Shostakovich’s haunting Chamber Symphony shares a deep and personal story. Familiar favorites by Bach and Grieg dance and delight as familiar features to this special concert.
Join us for a unique concert that showcases the range and diversity of music for the string orchestra in a program that utilizes “the dance” in beautiful ways. The delightful “To the Point” and “Danzas de Panama," by underperformed female and African American composers, literally dance and uniquely expand the sounds and features of string instruments. In contrast, Shostakovich’s masterpiece, the haunting Chamber Symphony 110a, reworks the symphony genre by creating an autobiographical work full of haunting melodies and terrifying rhythms. The famous Brandenburg No. 3 by Bach and the joyful Holberg Suite by Grieg dance and delight as familiar features to this special and unusual concert.
