Fanfare & Fantasy — November 2024 Concert Livestream

11/09/2024 07:30 PM - 09:30 PM CT

Description

To fantasize is to imagine the impossible. In Bernstein’s iconic West Side Story, two lovers reach across the uncrossable boundaries of race and culture. Ulysses Kay conjures variations on a theme that does not yet exist. And Alice Mary Smith breaks through 19th century gender norms to become England’s first female symphonist.
