About This Event
In Hollywood, exiles and outsiders weaved American dreams, writing music that made the silver screen shine. Music from the golden age of the movies frames tonight鈥檚 concert, and from the haunted obsession of Bernard Herrmann鈥檚 classic Hitchcock score to Korngold鈥檚 The Sea Hawk 鈥 an all-action swashbuckler from Vienna鈥檚 brightest star 鈥 no emotion is off limits. It sounds glorious too 鈥 even without the pictures.
This is the first chance to hear music from Terence Blanchard鈥檚 Fire Shut Up In My Bones, whose barnstorming run at the Metropolitan Opera in 2021 proved a major landmark in American music. Blanchard鈥檚 Grammy-winning 鈥渙pera in jazz鈥 explores a troubled childhood in 1980s Louisiana, while Ryan Latimer鈥檚 brand-new trumpet concerto with the young Austrian trumpeter Selina Ott takes its inspiration from the wildlife (real or imaginary) of Florida.
