Intro

November brings us the heartfelt program Going Home: Songs of Comfort – just in time for the Thanksgiving holiday. Baritone Leon Williams performs a new arrangement of Dvořák’s soulful Going Home, and HSO’s principal flute Susan McGinn joins the orchestra for CPE Bach’s electrifying Concerto for Flute. Lyric for Strings by American master George Walker, the first African-American to be awarded the Pulitzer Prize in music, will complete our program.
