LineUp

The Baltimore Symphony Orchestra is a leading American orchestra led by music director Marin Alsop. Recognized for acclaimed recordings and educational outreach like OrchKids, the BSO performs across Maryland, playing at Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall and The Music Center at Strathmore.
"Rhapsody in Blue," composed by George Gershwin in 1924, is an iconic American musical composition. Originating in New York City, it masterfully blends classical music with jazz and blues, creating a distinctly American, modernist style. Known for its memorable melodies and the famous opening clarinet glissando, it established Gershwin as an eminent composer. Commissioned by Paul Whiteman and orchestrated by Ferde Grofé, this work is celebrated for defining the Jazz Age.
