Details:
Opening the evening is Aaron Copland’s iconic Fanfare for the Common Man (1943), paired with Joan Tower’s Fanfare for the Uncommon Woman (1986), a contemporary work inspired by Copland. Tower dedicated her fanfare to conductor Marin Alsop, calling it a tribute to “women who take risks and are adventurous,” a perfect introduction to an evening of bold musical statements.
The Orchestra then presents the SPAC debut of Mozart’s deeply lyrical Piano Concerto No. 23, featuring pianist Jeneba Kanneh-Mason in her SPAC and Orchestra debut, following recent appearances by her siblings Isata Kanneh-Mason and Sheku Kanneh-Mason.
Closing the program is Mahler’s monumental Symphony No. 1, a sweeping exploration of personal journey and human emotion, rounding out an evening of timeless and powerful works.
