Pre-concert talk by John Kendall Bailey at 7:00pm


Program

Charles Ives
- Symphony No. 2 (1909)

Rebeca Mauleón - Suite Afro-Cubano (World Premiere)
New Visions/New Vistas Commissioning Project
Made possible by a grant from The James Irvine
Foundation

Duke Ellington - Harlem (1952)



Journey from the heartland of America to the busy streets of Harlem, with a detour to the islands of the Caribbean added for good measure! Tonight?s concert will feature great works by two of the most important composers in American history ? Charles Ives and jazz great Duke Ellington ? as well as a world premiere by internationally acclaimed pianist, composer and educator Rebeca Mauleón, who is one of four composers from non-classical genres selected for a New Visions/New Vistas commission.

Widely regarded as a true American masterpiece, Ives? Second Symphony artfully weaves material from popular folk tunes such as Columbia the Gem of the Ocean and Camptown Races into an original work that still has much in common with the older European style. Duke Ellington?s Harlem, from its sultry beginning to its flashy big-band middle and beyond, gave Ellington the opportunity to ?make some statements on the subject of Harlem, the music and the people.?
