(4/24/21) A true infusion of masterworks, members of the Sioux City Symphony bring to life this imaginative collection of music. A classic ode to the American frontier Appalachian Spring is set beneath vistas and wide-open spaces and depicts a pioneering spirit through its iconic variations on the folk song “simple gifts.”
Also on the concert are the bracing harmonies and infectious rhythms of Igor Stravinsky’s The Soldier’s Tale and the touching music by one of the most versatile American composers, William Grant Still known as the “Dean of African-American Composers.”
