Our Season Finale begins with the “classical” side of America with Bernstein’s sparkling overture to Candide followed by the jazz-inspired Piano Concerto by George Gershwin.

From 1920’s New York we then move to Latin America & the rhythmically brilliant Danzon No2 by Mexican composer Marquez. Marquez was inspired by the Cuban dance rhythms he heard after visiting a ballroom in Veracruz for this vibrant, exciting work.

We conclude with a ticket to the movies & four of the best scores from the greatest film composer of them all, America’s John Williams.
