ALARM WILL SOUND
Alan Pierson, conductor
American superstar composer John Adams (b. 1947) receives a portrait concert by the twenty-piece band, Alarm Will Sound. The program will range from “greatest hits” like the Chamber Symphony and China Gates, to less-performed works like his wonderful clarinet concerto Gnarly Buttons and excerpts from his song-opera I Was Looking at the Ceiling and Then I Saw the Sky. This promises to be a raucous and jubilant evening.
