The Redwood Symphony presents, "Liberating the Soul," featuring Lou Harrison's piano concerto from 1985.
A pre-concert lecture will be held at 7 p.m. followed by the concert in the Main Theater at 8 p.m. The cost is $20 for adults ($25 at the door) and $10 for students. The concert is free for all Cañada College students, staff, and faculty and any children under 18 accompanied by an adult.
The concert is centered around John Corigliano's Symphony No. 1, written at the peak of the AIDS crisis in 1989. This piece is moving to become an enduring memorial, mixing expressive rage with melodies offering solace. Jennifer Higdon's Blue Cathedral is the radiant balance to the program. Written in 2000, it is as much of a hit as an orchestra piece can be, having been playing by 400 orchestras around the world.
