Marc-André Hamelin & David Robertson in Gershwin, Ellington & Copland

The Cleveland Orchestra

150 Min

A regular guest with the Cleveland Orchestra, pianist Marc-André Hamelin brings his breathtaking virtuosity to the irrepressible jazz rhythms of Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue – the centerpiece of a journey through America's musical heartland that also features New World A-Comin', Duke Ellington's hopeful vision of a future with "no war, no greed, no categorization". Conductor David Robertson bookends the piano pyrotechnics with Copland's suites from Appalachian Spring and The Tender Land, expansive works evoking open landscapes and open hearts.
