Coffee: Lasting Legacies by Okoye, Berko, Potter, T., Kahane, Gabriel, Adams, R 13 okt 2023, Alates (2023/2023), Dirigent Teddy Abrams, The Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts, Louisville, United States

Compositions with family ties take the Whitney stage, beginning with pre-existing works from the second generation of our Creators Corps family. Gabriel Kahane, well known for blurring the lines between rock and classical, has written a beautifully personal piano concerto for his father, acclaimed pianist Jeffrey Kahane. The piece, called Heirloom, will be performed with the LO by the senior Kahane. Our program ends with an orchestral adventure by popular minimalist composer John Adams whose third movement was inspired by a dream of his daughter (nicknamed Quackie) drifting along in the universe on the shoulder of the mysterious Mr. Eckhardt.
