Northwest Sinfonietta: This Land

• Tacoma Urban Performing Arts Center (T.U.P.A.C.)
• Yaniv Attar, conductor

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart — Divertimento No. 11 in D major, K. 251 (selections)
Aaron Copland — Appalachian Spring Suite (with dance)
Jessie Montgomery — Banner
Alberto Ginastera — Variaciones concertantes, Op. 23

Northwest Sinfonietta joins with our partner in the arts—Tacoma Urban Performing Arts Center—to bring the story of Tacoma icon Nettie Asberry to life with a new ballet choreographed and performed to Aaron Copland's Appalachian Spring for 13 instruments. The second half broadens the lens to include Jessie Montgomery's Banner, a rhapsody on the theme of The Star Spangled Banner, and concludes with Argentinian composer Alberto Ginastera's magnificent concerto for orchestra and ode to his homeland, the Variaciones concertantes.
