From Heaven to Hades: Sequoia Symphony Orchestra

Jennifer Higdon | blue cathedral
Rachmaninoff | Piano Concerto No. 2 feat. Henry Kramer, piano
Berlioz | Symphonie Fantastique

Sometimes, progress happens in leaps and bounds. There is no better example of that than Symphonie Fantastique, a massive jump in what a "Symphony" can do. Bigger, longer, louder, crazier. Berlioz truly broke the mold with his opium-inspired hedonism. Jenifer Higdon's star rose higher and shone brighter after blue cathedral premiered, becoming one of the most programmed works of living composers today.
