Poetry and Music Come Together in an Evening of Beauty

Join Orchestra Miami as we explore one of the great symphonic poems of all time, Scheherazade by Rimsky-Korsakov. One of the most beloved symphonic poems ever written, Scheherazade tells the story of the legendary Persian queen and storyteller who saves her life and the lives of countless others, by telling King Shahryar a captivating, cliffhanger story each night for 1,001 nights, eventually winning his love and ending his murderous spree.

Also on the program is the Four Walt Whitman Songs by Kurt Weill, a cycle of songs based on poems by Walt Whitman, comprising of "Beat! Beat! Drums!," "O Captain! My Captain!," "Come Up from the Fields, Father," and "Dirge for Two Veterans,"

​

The phenomenally talented baritone, Kyle Pfortmiller, joins us as the soloist  in these dramatic and important songs.

 

Also on the program is the

Walt Whitman Overture by Gustav Holst, a dynamic and evocative work inspired by the transcendentalist poet’s themes of patriotism, individuality, and the human spirit.
