Winston-Salem Symphony opens 26/27 Season with Gershwin, Rachmaninoff, & Trane
The Symphony’s 80th season-opening celebration coincides with the centennialcelebration of High Point-native John Coltrane, who left an enduring legacy in the jazz idiom. UNCG saxophone professor Robert Young brings Coltrane’s influence to bear in a recent concerto by Guillaume Connesson. Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess and Rachmaninoff’s fiery Symphonic Dances, two of the rare orchestral pieces that include saxophone, round out this program.
