Our American birthday party really goes on the town with Leonard Bernstein’s helluva Three Dance Episodes from On the Town!  Add in Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue and Coplands’s Appalachian Spring and the gang’s all here. But wait, there’s more: Orchestra Lumos has commissioned no less than five composers to write a new suite American Portraits – reflections on 250 years. We think this is going to be the season of celebration!
