Attend Summermusik’s Musical Giants at ARCO on November 15

What defines a musical giant? Explore a few “giant” composers as well as those “giants” that inspired them with a woodwind quintet.

Join Summermusik as they share their insights as to why these musical giants stand the test of time:

Beethoven, Haydn, Ibert, and Nielsen. The quintet will also perform compositions by two living musical giants, Valerie Coleman and Carlos Simon.
