The Louisville Orchestra under the baton of Teddy Abrams brings an exciting program of orchestral favorites to residents all over the Commonwealth of Kentucky. It’s a concert of overtures – Bernstein kicks it off with his hugely popular Overture to Candide, Teddy Abrams conducts the overture to his ground-breaking rap opera about Muhammed Ali, Rossini gives us a bit of “Hi Ho Silver”, and Tchaikovsky wraps up the program with his rousing 1812 Overture. Along the way, we’ll float down the Moldau River through the Czech countryside, experience contemporary pieces by two composers of the LO’s Creators Corps – Kentucky native Tyler Taylor and TJ Cole, sing along with an arrangement of Blue Moon of Kentucky, and revel in the jazz themes of Gershwin’s iconic Rhapsody in Blue.
