Manhattan School of Music presents a performance of Robert Sirota’s 212: Symphony No. 1 performed by the Manhattan School of Music Symphony Orchestra and conducted by George Manahan. The Portland Press Herald describes Sirota’s works, which encompass an array of emotions and experiences, as “personal and undogmatic,” with The New York Times describing 212: Symphony No. 1 as music that’s “artfully done.” The concert program will also include performances of Symphony No. 2 (Sinfonía India) by Carlos Chávez and Piano Concerto For The Left Hand In D Major by Maurice Ravel.
