Music by Mendelssohn, Percy Grainger, Paul Hindemith, Alexandra Gardner, and Jay Kennedy
 

Jay Kennedy’s “Catapult” opens the performance with a burst of energy, followed by Felix
Mendelssohn’s bustling “Scherzo” from A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The iconically brisk “Molly on
the Shore” by Percy Grainger precedes the newly commissioned alto saxophone concerto “Time
Unfolding” by Alexandra Gardner, featuring soloist Senior Chief Musician Joshua Thomas. Pierre
Leemans’ charming concert march “March of the Belgian Paratroopers” is next, and the emotional
and retrospective “Rudolf and Jeanette” by Gerard Schwarz follows. Paul Hindemith’s thrilling
“March” from Symphonic Metamorphosis closes the program.
