Soloists Julian Schwartz and Marika Bournaki return to the JSO for our first of two programs this year featuring American music. Join us as we explore the generations of American music beginning with John Adams’ most recognizable work – Short Ride in a Fast Machine. We will also hear a commissioned double concerto by Jackson’s own Marcus Norris and the program completes with Aaron Copland’s epic Third Symphony, harkening to sounds of Fanfare for the Common Man.
