Conductor
Michael Morgan has announced a new season for his Oakland East Bay
Symphony that will highlight the works of American and Bay Area
composers as well as music from the Middle East.
The 2012-13
season opens in the Paramount Theatre on Nov. 9 -- the Friday after the
presidential election -- with a "Celebrating Democracy" program anchored
by new principal clarinetist Bill Kalinkos performing Aaron Copland's
Clarinet Concerto. Also on the all-American bill are Adolphus
Hailstork's "An American Fanfare," Leonard Bernstein's Symphonic Dances
from "West Side Story" and "Homework Suite" and "Episodes for Orchestra"
by Bay Area composers Gordon Getty and Olly Wilson respectively.
