DSO’s opening night promises to be more than just a concert—it’s a joyful, heartfelt tribute to American musical genius! Leonard Bernstein’s Overture to Candide opens the program in a whirlwind of wit, sparkle and orchestral color. Duke Ellington’s Harlem follows, painting a vibrant sonic portrait of one of New York City’s most iconic neighborhoods. Grammy Award-winning pianist Michelle Cann makes her DSO debut in Florence Price’s Piano Concerto in One Movement—a bold, expressive work by the first African American woman to gain recognition as a symphonic composer. The concert concludes with George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, featuring Cann as soloist. From its unforgettable clarinet opening to its exhilarating fusion of classical form and jazz, this masterpiece captures the bustling spirit of early 20th-century America.
