Gershwin's Concerto in F
A riveting journey of influential American music led by Grammy-winning conductor David Alan Miller featuring pianist Kevin Cole, the world’s leading authority on Gershwin’s piano literature. Gershwin’s virtuosic and jazz-inspired Concerto in F is paired with landmarks of American repertoire by Joan Tower, John Harbison and Walter Piston. Tower’s Sequoia implements winds, brass and percussion to paint both the tall branching and the deep rooting of the giant redwood trees.
Mahler's Symphony No. 5
Michael Stern leads a triumphant conclusion to the 2019 festival with music by Anna Clyne, Richard Wagner and Gustav Mahler. Clyne’s turbulent This Midnight Hour is based on poetry of Juan Ramón Jiménez and Charles Baudelaire and evokes a surreal nocturnal scene. Wagner’s ethereal Prelude to Act I from Lohengrin paints a shimmering vision of angels and the Holy Grail, and answers questions regarding the purity and sanctity of love.
