Stravinsky & Beethoven

The program features Michael Gordon’s Natural History, sparked by Crater Lake National Park and bringing together Native and symphonic traditions in homage to the natural world. It also includes Igor Stravinsky’s Symphonies of Wind Instruments, an exploration of color for winds and brass, and Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 1, lively and dramatic. Native Oregonian Grace Miedziak contributes a new work honoring the Pacific Northwest.
