Adamo's Last Year - this year at ROCO!

On November 13, the series continues with “A Stitch in Time,’ featuring conductor Jeri Lynne Johnson’s ROCO debut, and the world premiere of Mark Adamo’s cello concerto Last Year—a work co-commissioned by the American Composers Orchestra, New Century Chamber Orchestra, and Manitoba Chamber Orchestra—in which each movement represents one of the four seasons. The program also includes Hilary Purrington’s FIFteen commission, Threshold, Jonathan Peters’ Arthropod Suite, and Beethoven’s Symphony No. 8 in F Major—whose 2nd movement parodies the metronome.
