DCS "Notes"

Join the Delaware County Symphony for an inspiring program highlighting the rich tapestry of American musical voices on Sunday, March 1st at 3:00 PM.


William Grant Still’s vibrant Festive Overture opens the concert with rhythmic brilliance and uplifting spirit. World renowned and award-winning pianist Thomas Pandolfi takes the stage for Edward MacDowell’s Piano Concerto No. 2, a sweeping Romantic masterpiece filled with lyricism and sparkling virtuosity. The orchestra then explores the heart of early American musical heritage through William Schuman’s beloved New England Triptych, before concluding with Duke Ellington’s Three Black Kings, a soulful and majestic tribute blending symphonic tradition with jazz-inflected color.
