Symphonic Dances From West Side Story

Swire Maestro Series

Description

Description

Four diverse American voices make up tonight’s programme-the lush ‘Hollywood’ sound of Erich Korngold is paired with Adams’ brash and energetic Chairman Dances. Charles Ives, an American trailblazer, depicts three places in New England, but also a spiritual vision of his homeland. And finally, Leonard Bernstein’s West Side Story- a symphonic blaze of dance and Broadway energy.
