LOCATION

The 26–27 Season opens with a vibrant celebration of American music, from jazz to Broadway and beyond. Duke Ellington’s Black, Brown & Beige and Symphonic Dances from West Side Story bring bold rhythms and vibrant energy to the stage. Violinist Randall Goosby takes the spotlight in Johannes Brahms’s Violin Concerto, a sweeping and deeply expressive showcase for one of today’s most compelling young artists. This program also features a fresh voice from close to home with a work by local composer Ben Van Winkle. It’s an evening full of color and contrast, from the first note to the last.
