Teddy Abrams—Musical America’s 2022 Conductor of the Year and NWS alumnus—joins Latin ensemble People of Earth for a celebration of culture and expression. Aaron Copland, founder of the American Sound, takes a detour south of the border as he depicts a raucous dance using Mexican folk tunes that overflow with color and vitality. Gabriela Lena Frank deftly blends her Peruvian heritage with her admiration of Benjamin Britten in Concertino Cusqueño. Passion, turmoil and excitement exude from the pages of Leonard Bernstein’s beloved score for West Side Story and Cuban-American drummer, composer and University of Miami professor Dafnis Prieto introduces a new work for the People of Earth global music collective.
