THANK YOU TO THIS MONTH'S SPONSORS

Hear the orchestra dance in this night of catchy rhythms and toe-tapping melodies. We open with the evocative, jazzy, and nostalgic Dances in the Canebrakes by Florence Price, the first African-American woman composer to have her work performed by major orchestras. We will also play Rachmaninoff’s fascinating Symphonic Dances, which was originally intended to be a ballet score, but eventually became a meditation on ecclesiastical chant motifs. 
In addition to these pieces, due to programing changes at the February 5^th concert, the epic love story of Ravel’s Daphnis and Chloe will be played at the March 5^th concert. 

 

Florence Price – Dances in the Canebrakes 
Sergei Rachmaninoff – Symphonic Dances
