November 21st Program Description

MYS kicks off the season with a virtual celebration of music, theatre and art, featuring a cross-genre program that allows for unique collaboration between MYS ensembles on a digital platform. The online concert opens with Edvard Grieg’s lyrical Peer Gynt Suites No. 1 & 2 performed by seven MYS ensembles in a seamless flow that matches Henrik Ibsen’s original play, with added narration and visual art created by MYS students. The central portion of the concert features works by African American composers, including Florence Price’s joyful Dances in the Canebrakes, Danzas de Panama by William Grant Still, Stacked by Allison Loggins-Hull and the MYS Jazz Ensemble’s performance of John Coltrane’s civil rights elegy “Alabama”.
