This program celebrates the American dream through the experience of Ellis Island and the art of Norman Rockwell. The Orchestra performs Peter Boyer’s Ellis Island: The Dream of America. A moving orchestral and visual tapestry, the concert features vintage photos from the Ellis Island archives with live actors reciting short monologues from the journals of seven immigrants who came through Ellis Island. The other half of the concert features Florida-composer Stella Sung’s Rockwell Reflections while nostalgic Rockwell paintings are projected on the big screen.
