Description
Just in time for Halloween, the dramatic cinematic scope of Randall Standridge’s A Ghost Story complements the exquisite craft of Julia Perry’s Symphony No. 6 as we celebrate the centennial of this pioneering Black woman composer. Nick Omiccioli plays double duty as both composer and soloist in his new work for electric guitar and band that is inspired by 70s funk and disco!
