American Dreams - March 16, 17, 18

Event Details

Classical Series

2018 - 2019

Concert runtime = 2 hours


Conductor Emeritus Jeffrey Kahane returns for "American Dreams," which begins with An American in Paris, Gershwin's popular, jazzy tone poem. In Elena Urioste’s embrace, Barber’s Concerto for Violin and Orchestra unfolds with deep sweetness and serenity before building to a breathless climax of fiendish virtuosity. Copland’s Symphony No. 3 is a hymn of hope, celebrating the universal journey to solace and renewal after a time of darkness—with a concluding triumphant brass fanfare that is an unabashed exaltation of our common humanity.


*Please note: Saturday and Monday performances begin at 7:30 PM

“Urioste's technical prowess was matched by her instinctive sense of expressive phrasing. She made the devilishly difficult passages look simple… “
--Arizona Daily Star
