Burleigh, Florence Price, George Walker and William Grant Still helped to define the American sound as we know it, often using settings of Black songs, hymns and spirituals as the foundations for their musical works,\u201d says ASO executive director Daniel Crupi. \u201cTheir music, alongside that of contemporary Black composers such as Jessie Montgomery, Adolphus Hailstork and Jonathan Bailey Holland, are cornerstones of what we now consider to be the American musical voice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Under the direction of ASO music director Darko Butorac, the concert transports audience members to 1920s New York to explore distinctive musical masterpieces. Each of the four works on the program has an important place in the development of this sound. Dvor\u00e1k\u2019s <em>New World Symphony,<\/em> one of the most popular symphonies of all time, was a catalyst to inspire American musicians to write works with material rooted in the US, especially in the tradition of the African American spiritual. Will Marion Cook, a student of Dvor\u00e1k, wrote the first Black Broadway hit in 1903: <em>In Dahomey<\/em>. William Grant Still\u2019s first symphony, <em>Afro-American<\/em>, wove his experience as a Black musician into the tapestry of a traditional European symphony. Gershwin\u2019s <em>Rhapsody in Blue<\/em>, a concerto for piano and orchestra that is firmly rooted in jazz, rounds out the concert.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cRoaring Rhapsody<\/em> is a celebration of the diversity of great American orchestral music,\u201d says Butorac. \u201cJust like our nation, the musical history of America is a whirling melting pot of influences.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The concert features guest piano soloist Xiayin Wang. Wang has released numerous celebrated recordings and performed throughout the world, from New York\u2019s Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center, to music centers in South America, Europe and Asia. Her discography has received international acclaim, with her most recent Chandos recording of Tchaikovsky and Scriabin piano concerti earning accolades.<\/p>\n<p><em>Thomas Wolfe Auditorium is at 87 Haywood Street, Asheville.
