Dvořák: Symphony No. 9, “From the New World”
Dvořák’s gift to America in 1893 was nothing less than a symphonic sound we
could call our own. Guest Conductor David Danzmayr makes his GTMF debut
with the highly influential “New World” Symphony and a performance of
co-commissioned work for Third Coast Percussion by Clarice Assad called
“Play!” that is about “finding awe in the little things.”
