The RSO season concludes with a jubilant celebration honoring the 250th anniversary of the United States, showcasing American music and its rich and diverse heritage. The evening begins with Jessie Montgomery's A Hymn for Everyone, a vibrant work that reflects the spirit of unity and shared history. Leonard Bernstein's powerful Symphony No. 1 Jeremiah follows, blending bold orchestration with a heartfelt exploration of faith and resilience. Jeff Midkiff's thrilling Mandolin Concerto "From the Blue Ridge," inspired by Appalachian traditions, brings the soul of bluegrass to the concert hall. To celebrate the innovator of the "American sound," the concert closes with two movements of Aaron Copland's tribute to the American West, Rodeo.
