SUMMARY:Rhapsody in Blue at 100
DESCRIPTION:A century ago\, a piercing clarinet glissando opened the premiere performance of George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue and forever changed American music. The fusion of jazz and popular elements vividly depicted New York City in 1924 and opened upopened possibilities for generations of composers to follow.  Copland fused melodies inspired by American roots music with the European symphonic tradition in his heroic and majestic Third Symphony\, featuring the oft-performed Fanfare for the Common Man. GRAMMY®-award winning composer Jessie Montgomery’s Banner interweaves our national anthem with “a variety of cultural anthems\, American folk songs and popular idioms” that reflect the diversity and vitality of our 21st century nation.

SUMMARY:The Brightness of Light with Renée Fleming
DESCRIPTION:Rita Barbour Kern Masterworks \n \nInspired by two iconic American women\, Pulitzer-prize winning composer Kevin Puts has created a multimedia experience that demands to be seen and heard live. Renée Fleming makes her triumphant return to Toledo\, singing from the letters of Georgia O’Keefe. Joined by baritone Rod Gilfry\, who portrays Ms. O’Keefe’s longtime correspondent and partner Alfred Stieglitz\, this orchestral song cycle traces their relationship in a piece that explores the intersection between visual art\, letters\, the orchestra\, and the human voice.    \nA lost letter is the tragic catalyst behind Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet\, which inspired Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky to write some of his most unforgettable melodies. Reena Esmail’s Black Iris\, named after a Georgia O’Keefe painting\, poignantly explores the tension between a musical world that joyfully inspires and a musical industry that too often silences the voices of women.   \nRenée Fleming’s appearance is made possible through a generous gift from Bob and Sue Savage.
