SUMMARY:Excelsior Symphony Orchestra: Celebrating American Music!
DESCRIPTION:Excelsior Symphony Orchestra\, in the 250th year of American independence\, presents its Spring Concert: Celebrating American Music! Guest Conductor Teresa Cheung leads a program that reflects all the colors of the American soul.\nMorton Gould’s “American Salute” uses the melody “When Johnny Comes Marching Home\,” for a salute to America’s World War II allies. Charles Ives’ “Variations on ‘America’” presents that familiar piece in an entirely new way\, as only Ives’ imagination could invent.\nAfrican-American composers are well-represented on the program. ESO performs W.C. Handy’s swinging “St. Louis Blues\,” Florence Price’s soulful “Concert Overture No. 2” and William Grant Still’s blues-haunted “Afro-American Symphony.”\nESO’s late Music Director\, William Eckfeld\, composed “Fanfare for Hackley” for brass choir\, in honor of the orchestra’s participation in Diller Hall’s inaugural season.\nFor more information on the program\, Dr. Joshua Berrett’s notes\, and ticket purchasing information\, go to www.excelsiorso.org. Tickets are $30/adults\, $10/high school and college students\, free/under age 14.
