Folk Music Festival

Music carries its own genetic code. It reveals who we are, and where we come from. It holds the identities of entire communities and has no respect for political boundaries. Music moves freely across borders, even when people cannot. This exciting program will feature five exciting works from around the world, showcasing classical masterpieces inspired by rich folk traditions. The orchestra, under the direction of principal guest conductor, Michael Hall opens with the lively Dances of Galánta by Hungarian composer Zoltán Kodály, which combines traditional folk melodies from the composer’s home region with a symphonic context. Native American folk songs will also be highlighted in a new and thrilling work from Mark Piszczek, titled Song Catcher. The concert is rounded out with three very popular works from around the globe, Aaron Copland’s exciting Rodeo, Percy Grainger’s gorgeous Irish Tune from County Derry, and Dvorak’s electrifying Slavonic Dances.
