20 Years with Maestro Walter Morales and 38 years together as the Edgewood Symphony begins the season with a festive concert at Carnegie Music Hall Sunday October 19th at 3pm. Conductor Morales joins composers Robert Schulz and Danny English to talk abut their new music to be heard for the first time at the event. Maestra Maria Sensi Sellner conducts Gabriela Ortiz's "Kauyumari" and the Ravel Concerto for the Left Hand which features Walter Morales at the keyboard, plus the Colorscope Suite for Piano Left Hand by Robert Schultz and Danny English’s "Colluctatio" - a Miniature Piano Concerto. The Concerto tells the story in a tight five minute piece of Danny English's health struggles in looking for a kidney transplant while teaching and leading the music program at Aspinwall Presbyterian Church. Robert speaks about his teacher at WVU, Thomas Canning, whose music has been performed around the globe and recorded, plus Schultz’s thousands of transcriptions for piano with international publishing. At the end of the concert the audience will be invited to stay after for a reception where the concertmaster will be congratulated for telling the story of Scheherazade in Rimsky Korsakoff’s classic. Two decades conducting and appearing as soloist for Walter, two world premieres from Robert and Danny, Resonance Works founder Maria Sensi Sellner and the players of 38 seasons. Plenty to be glad about and it’s only the first concert of the season! Tickets are $20. Visit edgewoodsymphony.org.
