A program of wonderful musical masterpieces by extraordinarily gifted American composers. The Orchestra Nova Northwest performs an exquisite lament by Pulitzer Prize winner George Walker, two works by Florence Price—the first black female composer to have a symphony performed by a major American orchestra: her passionate and powerful Symphony No. 1, with its musical reflections of Dvorak’s great New World Symphony, and also Price’s dynamic Piano Concerto. The Orchestra Nova Northwest welcomes the outstanding pianist Artina McCain, who also performs a delightful Dance Tribute by Ghanaian-American composer Fred Onovwerosuoke.
