Come celebrate this fusion of music, modern life, and political upheaval.

FULL DESCRIPTION

Jennifer Higdon’s Fanfare Rítmico is a 21st century work that celebrates the “speed of modern life,” opening with an energetic flourish. Orchestra Iowa’s own Miko Kominami performs Liszt’s iconic Piano Concerto No. 2 with its melodic theme, expressive variations, and challenging solo passages. Shostakovich’s masterful Symphony No. 5 closes with a bold, enduring statement of resisting oppression.
