Allen Philharmonic, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary, partners with the Allen Symphony Chorus as they present the music prominently featured in the popular video game Civilization VI. Another highlight features principal flautist Jennifer McElroy, who will play the Malcolm Arnold Flute Concerto.
The evening’s selections include Debussy's dreamy "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun" and Jessie Montgomery's brand new work, "Overture," steeped in harmonic textures inspired by a fusion between jazz and American classical harmonies, Baroque rhythmic gestures and polyphonic tension.
