GERSHWIN: Rhapsodies

GERSHWIN: Rhapsodies

Presented by Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra at Western Michigan University - Miller Auditorium

Charting a musical voyage from Tin Pan Alley to St. Petersburg.

One of the great American composers of the Jazz age, Gershwin's two Rhapsodies for piano and orchestra are the highlight of the evening. With Gershwin's distinctly American style, the orchestra will be crowing like a big band. Two orchestral showpieces—featuring the orchestra in all its virtuosity—open and close the program.

Conductor: Daniel Brier, KSO Resident Conductor
Guest Soloist: Kevin Cole, piano

We recommend attending our Wiser Financial Prelude, from 7-7:30 p.m., prior to each Symphonic Series concert. These popular talks help guide you through interesting details of the program and might even introduce the soloist.

Immediately after each Symphonic Series concert, stick around for "AfterWORDS," an interactive discussion between the conductor, soloist, and audience.
