John Henry's Big (Man vs. Machine) Jay Crone, trombone; Elizabeth Bachelder, piano
(Music/Theatre/Dance)
Legendary figure John Henry was the inspiration for Adolphus Hailstork's composition: a tour-de-force for trombone and piano that is a riveting portral of the steely strength and stamina of John Henry, a former slave who helped build the American railroads and ultimately outperformed a steam engine.
Works by Alec Wilder, Eric Ewazen, faculty member James Sochinski, and others will be performed. More information...
