Winston-Salem Symphony: Copland's Fanfare (cover conductor)


Conor Brown’s quirky How to Relax with Origami folds numerous, varied miniatures into a brief opening work. Winston-Salem composer Dan Locklair pairs poetry by Maya Angelou—narrated here by NC poet laureate Jaki Shelton Green— with a large orchestra and chorus. Copland’s enormous Symphony No. 3 celebrates the contributions of everyday, hard-working people and its familiar melody (“Fanfare for the Common Man”) makes for a stunning conclusion to the season.
