Conducted by VSO Music Director Andrew Crust. \nThe concert begins at 7:30 p.m. and is preceded at 6:30 p.m. by Musically Speaking\, a free pre-concert discussion that provides entertaining insight into the evening’s program with Vermont Public classical radio host James Stewart. \nPROGRAM \nAdolphus Hailstork    –    An American Port of Call \nGeorge Gershwin    –    An American in Paris \nIntermission\n \nGeorge Gershwin    –    Rhapsody in Blue (arranged for banjo by Béla Fleck) \nWilliam Grant Still    –    Symphony No. 1 (“Afro-American”) \n\nThis concert is generously sponsored by The TD Bank Foundation\, the Vermont Community Foundation Concert Artists Fund\, McSoley McCoy & Co.\, Vermont Public\, Vermont Humanities\, the State of Vermont\, and VSO’s Endowment Funds and JEDI (Justice\, Equity\, Diversity\, and Inclusion) Fund.\n       \n        \n \n
