Our second Masterworks pays tribute to our Appalachian musical roots, as mandolin virtuoso Chris Thile joins us to perform his new concerto ATTENTION!, “a narrative song cycle for extroverted mandolinist and orchestra.” Other works on this concert include In the Beginning by North Carolina-based composer Brittany J. Green, Verdi’s Overture to La Forza del Destino (another reference to the WSO’s inaugural season), and Three Dance Episodes from Leonard Bernstein’s “On the Town,” a tribute to Wheeling native and accomplished conductor Everett Lee, a Black conductor who broke barriers in the 1950’s and worked closely with Bernstein throughout his life.Subscriptions for the 2024-2025 seasonYour Community In Concert are on sale now.
