The new campus opens with triumphant force and excitement! Wagner’s Overture foreshadows a dramatic adventure parallel to that of our new campus with sweeping waves and brooding lyricism. Inaugurate our new space with a world premiere by Thomas Adès, one of today’s foremost composers, featuring video art by celebrated filmmaker Tal Rosner. The celebration continues with Copland’s Third Symphony. Conjuring vast landscapes and soaring spirits, the quintessential American sound comes to life with the Symphony’s folk-inspired melodies and quote of the famous Fanfare for the Common Man.
