Latin GRAMMY triple-nominated trumpet virtuoso Pacho Flores makes his NHSO debut, and Perry So leads the NHSO in music by Márquez, Frank, and Revueltas.
Holst’s cosmic opus "The Planets" and Gabriella Smith’s vibrant "Tumblebird Contrails" launch the season with a journey through space, nature, and imagination.
This powerful program explores themes of resilience and remembrance through Margaret Bonds’ Montgomery Variations, community singing, and Sanctum by NHSO Composer-in-Residence Courtney Bryan.
At the heart of this rhythm-driven program is Derrick Skye’s Rising Sun, a powerful West African drum concerto that illuminates how African rhythms pulse through classical, jazz, and Latin traditions—echoed in the vibrant energy of Revueltas’ La noche de los Mayas and Gershwin’s An American in Paris.
