COPLAND Suite from Appalachian Spring

GERSHWIN Rhapsody in Blue

ELLINGTON New World A-Comin'

COPLAND Suite from The Tender Land

Pianist Marc-André Hamelin brings his breathtaking virtuosity to the irrepressible jazz rhythms of Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, which celebrates its 100th anniversary this year. This beloved work is the centerpiece of a journey through America’s musical heartland that also features New World A-Comin’, Duke Ellington’s hopeful vision of a future with “no war, no greed, no categorization.” Conductor David Robertson bookends the piano pyrotechnics with Copland’s suites from Appalachian Spring and The Tender Land, sprawling works that evoke open landscapes and open hearts.
