Marin
Symphony’s first performance in the New Year and second Masterworks concert in
its “Fun. Seriously.” 61st Season coincides with Martin Luther King
Day. On the Sunday before and Monday after this auspicious day, Music Director
Alasdair Neale and the Symphony celebrate with Joseph Schwantner's "New Morning for the World" —
drawing upon the inspiring words of Martin Luther King, Jr. to create a memorable
and moving experience. Renowned Bay Area personality Noah Griffin is the
narrator for this extraordinary performance. The second part of the program
continues with Aaron Copland's Third Symphony — a testament to the American
spirit of optimism and self-renewal that weaves into its fabric the iconic "Fanfare for the Common Man." Masterworks
Pre-Concert Talks begin on Sundays at 2:00pm and are
free for all ticket holders.
