A wildly-successful premiere of Metropolitan this past weekend—Music Director Allen Tinkham and the Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestra brilliantly brought the piece into the world in Chicago’s Orchestra Hall, in a stunning program of Newman, Bartók, Smetana, and Sibelius. I was floored with how marvelous this orchestra is, and humbled at how much work these young musicians put into my piece, which sounded absolutely fantastic. Chi-town’s classical station WFMT broadcasts the piece, peppered with interviews, next month.
