From its opening sinuous flute solo, Claude Debussy's Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun blossoms into a dazzling kaleidoscope of orchestral sound. The musical celebration of our new hall continues with a US premiere by Pulitzer Prize winner Caroline Shaw, featuring the versatile vocal ensemble Roomful of Teeth. Florence Price's Symphony No. 4 is a bustling synthesis of distinctly American musical styles.
