An American in Paris in Ogden

Treat yourself to an evening of good ol’ fun with a night of music by some of the great American composers of the 20th century, including two works that made their mark on the film and theatre worlds—Gershwin’s An American in Paris (you can even hear the Parisian taxi horns!) and Bernstein’s Symphonic Dances from West Side Story. You’ll be snapping your fingers to these luscious tunes regardless of whether you’re a Shark or a Jet!

The program begins with the striking melodies of Barber’s Second Essay for Orchestra before Randall Goosby makes his highly anticipated return, performing Florence Price’s sweepingly amorous Violin Concerto No. 2 and her aptly-named Adoration.

PROGRAM:
BARBER: Second Essay for Orchestra
FLORENCE PRICE: Adoration
FLORENCE PRICE: Violin Concerto No. 2
GERSHWIN: An American in Paris
BERNSTEIN: Symphonic Dances from West Side Story
