GERSHWIN AND THE AMERICAN SOUND

Andrew Crust, conductor

SATURDAY, APRIL 5, 2025 // 7:30PM

Featuring Movement 3 – “Wylie Avenue” from “The Great Migration: A Symphony in Celebration of August Wilson” by Kathryn Bostic

Discover the American sound as the Lima Symphony performs lively and energetic classics set in American landscapes. Journey from the Wild West to the Midwest with Copland’s Billy the Kid Suite and selections from his opera The Tender Land. But what is the American sound without the blues! Concluding the journey is America’s favorite blues-classical fusion: Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue.
