Music of the Americas: USA

Adolphus Hailstork An American Port of Call (1984)
Gershwin Piano Concerto in F
Copland Symphony No.3
Domingo Hindoyan - conductor
Frank Dupree - piano
It’s the USA’s 250th birthday, and tonight Domingo Hindoyan explores different visions of the nation, from three of its most famous musical sons. Adolphus Hailstork paints a bustling portrait of a great American seaport, and Gershwin lights up the New York skyline in his gloriously bluesy Piano Concerto – our soloist Frank Dupree, making his long-awaited Liverpool debut, knows exactly how to make it swing. Meanwhile, expect to be stirred and surprised by Copland’s epic Third Symphony – a real supersonic showdown!
