John Adams: Slonimsky’s Earbox
Ravel: Piano Concerto in G Photo: Steven Mareazi Willis
Gershwin: Rhapsody in Blue
Debussy: Ibéria from Images

A little bit of New York, a little bit of Paris. America and France are front and
center on a program that features not one, but two major works for piano
and orchestra with the incomparable Michelle Cann. Gershwin’s Rhapsody in
Blue is turning 100 this year and, like Ravel’s G Major Concerto, it is a perfect
calling card for wit, charm and thrilling originality of its creator.
