about the event
Hop in the car for the great American road trip! We’ll hear music depicting the most iconic sights across the nation—from the Mighty Mississippi to the Grand Tetons and the Grand Canyon, we’ll cruise across Route 66 and beyond to hear both new and old pieces celebrating the great American landscape. And we’re very excited to bring Xavier Foley to Springfield for an unusual and truly exceptional treat—a jazzy, soul-inspired concerto for bass and orchestra!
