City-Scapes showcases music influenced by the history, culture and mythology of the places we call home, including works by Duke Ellington, Johann Strauss, Jennifer Higdon and Michael Daugherty. Begin your musical journey with Chicago Sinfonietta's Digital Guide to City-Scapes, where you'll find audio, video, links and more on the composers and their works.
The centerpiece of the concert is ChiScape, a new work commissioned by the Chicago Sinfonietta, inspired by Chicago's iconic architecture and written by four of symphonic music's most dynamic young composers.
Also, don't miss Prelude, a free pre-concert discussions at both Wentz Concert Hall and Symphony Center with all four ChiScape composers. Complete details on time and place are at the Digital Guide.
