Our season continues with two works inspired by the heavens. Mary Lou Williams is best known as a teacher and mentor to a “who’s who list” of jazz icons such as Miles Davis, Thelonius Monk and Dizzy Gillespie. Aaron Diehl, one of the foremost jazz pianists of our time, has traveled the world championing “Zodiac” Suites with its melding of jazz and classical ideas. Mozart’s final symphony places a tremendous coda on his symphonic legacy with his legendary grasp
of melody and drama.
Presented with generous support from Partners for the Arts.
