Slip into our mid-winter concert to resonate with Oskar Morawetz’s powerful Memorial to Martin Luther King and the quiet solemnity of Samuel Barber’s Adagio for Strings, composed in 1936 as a reflection of the changes occurring in America and Europe. The counterpoint is Joan Tower’s ecstatic vibrancy in Fanfare for the Uncommon Woman and Pytor Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s joyful Serenade for Strings.
