In recognition of Veteran's Day, join us for An American Salute and a premium reception! This one-hour program pays tribute to America, featuring compositions written in America from the 1890’s to today. Represented is an eclectic array of works by African American composers William Grant Still and Florence Price, Jewish composer Peter Schickele, and the living composer Jennifer Higdon. Capping this reflective and soulful set of works (a setting of “Amazing Grace” and works titled “Adoration” and “Little Suite for Autumn”) will be two lively movements from Czech composer Antonin Dvorak’s time-honored and ever-popular, “American Quartet”, written during the time he lived in the United States. The program traverses a vast creative landscape inspired by the grand diversity of our land and people.
Artists: Hal Grossman and Kate Ransom, violin; Amadi Azikiwe, viola; Jacques-Pierre Malan, cello
