Homecoming: Music of the Americas

Sunday, November 23, 2025

2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Carnegie Hall

Andrew J. Kim, The Marica and Jan Vilcek Music Director

Our first concert of the season celebrates American composers ranging from Gabriella Ortiz to Samuel Barber. We will also be joined by NYYS Jazz as they perform Ellington’s “Harlem” and our assistant conductor will lead the orchestra for Christopher Theofanidis’ Rainbow Body. Surely a wonderful way to start the season.

LIAM CUMMINS – A Lullaby and a Dream (John Deak First Music Commission and World Premiere), featuring Bixby Kennedy, clarinet
GABRIELA ORTIZ – Antrópolis
DUKE ELLINGTON – “Harlem” featuring NYYS Jazz, Michael Thomas, The Robert J. Levine Jazz Program Director
CHRISTOPHER THEOFANIDIS – Rainbow Body, Adrian Rogers, conductor
SAMUEL BARBER – Symphony No. 1
