About this event

America the beautiful, bold and brilliant: three composers who defined the nation’s musical voice, championed by two of its greatest exponents: conductor Leonard Slatkin and pianist Wayne Marshall.

Gershwin’s rousing blues- and jazz-accented Piano Concerto hymns the Roaring Twenties. Copland’s Third Symphony fuses Old World accents with New World vigour and vitality to produce one of the great musical statements of the ‘American Century’.
