my classic New World
Alondra de la Parra 0910
Alondra de la Parra, conductor

Join the Symphony for this joyous celebration of America's musical heritage, featuring the dynamic young conductor Alondra de la Parra. my classic New World weaves a kaleidoscopic tapestry of American music, bringing together the dreamy nostalgia of Copland's Old American Songs with the infectious swing of Duke Ellington's New World A-Comin'. The program culminates in Dvořák's immortal Ninth Symphony, New World, inspired by the Czech Romantic's fascination with American folk music.
