MusicUNTOLD clarion call for letters to National Symphony Orchestra
(NSO) requesting performance of SINFONIA No 5 by composer George Walker
(latest and perhaps final major work). The piece was inspired by the
horrible massacre at Emanuel African Methodist Church in Charleston
2015. George Walker was born in Washington DC and the NSO is his
preference for the premiere. Although a timely composition for the 2017
season, the NSO decided not to program the piece during the 2017 season
but they indicated they will program the piece NEXT SEASON. BUT, the NSO
has not given a date for the world premiere NEXT SEASON
Please
email AKGrossnickle@Kennedy-Center.org requesting a performance date
for SINFONIA No 5 by George Walker. Please see George Walker interview
