Boston Modern Orchestra Project (BMOP) presents an “Ellen Taaffe Zwilich Portrait Concert” featuring three of Ellen’s more recent orchestral works: Concerto Elegia for flute and orchestra (2015), Commedia dell’Arte for violin and orchestra (2012), and the Symphony No. 5 (2008). The 2020 BMOP-NEC composition competition winner, Lavell Blackwell, will have his Effleurage premiered by BMOP to open the concert.
“As BMOP kicks off its extended 2022-2023 Quarter-Century Celebration season, this return to historic Jordan Hall and portrait concert of an icon of American symphonic composition is not one to be missed.”
