20th Century – Sunday, March 5, 2017, at Our Savior’s Lutheran Church, 1044 S. Silverbrook Drive, West Bend.
Concert begins at 2 p.m. with a Pre-Concert Talk at 1 p.m.
Grofe’s “Grand Canyon Suite” evokes grand scenes, from an opening sunrise to the Painted Desert, the bray of a burro on the trail, cloudburst, and sunset. Copland wrote “Fanfare for the Common Man” in response to the U.S. entry into World War II, inspired in part by a famous 1942 speech proclaiming the dawn of the “Century of the Common Man.” Copland’s “Quiet City” and Britten’s “Simple Symphony” add to the contemporary vibe. This Concerto Concert also features the student winner of the Washington County Concerto Competition.
