An American Portrait

Joshua Barlage, Conductor
Jerry Schnurr, Narrator
Join us in celebrating our nation’s history, resilience, and prevailing ideals with Morton Gould’s rousing American Salute, Linda Robbins Coleman’s Elegy for the Greatest Generation and Jonathan Chenette’s Rural Symphony, commissioned by our Orchestra in 2000. Our musical salute to America culminates with Aaron Copland’s powerful Lincoln Portrait, a fusion of narration and music that reflects on the life and legacy of Abraham Lincoln. An American Portrait is both a tribute to the past and an affirmation of our nation’s enduring promise of freedom, equality and democracy.
