All American Celebration Concert — a vibrant showcase of American musical brilliance featuring pianist Michael Lewin. The program opens with Copland's spirited An Outdoor Overture, a joyful and optimistic work that captures the boundless energy and open-air spirit of America. Gershwin's iconic Rhapsody in Blue follows, beginning with its unforgettable clarinet glissando and weaving together classical sophistication with the rhythms and soul of jazz — it's one of the most beloved works in American music, and Michael Lewin's artistry will bring its dazzling piano part to life. Gottschalk's Grande Tarantelle adds 19th-century virtuosic flair, a brilliant showpiece for piano and orchestra by one of America's earliest classical composers. The concert concludes with Grofé's majestic Grand Canyon Suite, a five-movement musical journey through one of America's natural wonders. From the glowing Sunriseto the playful clip-clop of donkeys in On the Trail, the shimmering colors of Painted Desert, the serene Sunset, and the dramatic Cloudburst finale, this vivid orchestral portrait brings the grandeur of the American landscape to breathtaking life. It's a purely American program that celebrates the creativity and spirit of our nation's musical heritage.
