The Knox County Symphony will be presenting their first masterpiece for the 2018-2019 season. The masterpiece, “America the Beautiful”, can be heard on Saturday October 20th at 7:30 pm. Guest Conductor Christopher Stanichar shares more details on what those attending can expect:
“The first composer on the program is Aaron Copeland. We’re playing “An Outdoor Overture”, and it’s a fun piece. If you don’t know that piece, you probably know ” Fanfare for A Common Man”. The second piece that we are playing is Anthony Arnone’s Dvorak “Cello Concerto in B minor, op. 104”. And then there is this piece called “The Grand Canyon Suite”. Those attending will be treated to the amazing orchestra that will be accompanied by a slide show showing pictures of the Grand Canyon throughout the music,” reports Stanichar.
The masterpiece will be held at The Orpheum Theater, 57 South Kellogg Street in Galesburg.
