Listen to Alan Chapman's preview on SoundCloud.
We went to the Sunday concert, which featured just Ellis Island. I wonder what the electric violin sounds like! :)
Music director Carl St.Clair conducted, with electric violinist Tracy Silverman.
Frank Ticheli: Blue Shades
John Adams: The Dharma at Big Sur
Peter Boyer: Ellis Island: The Dream of America
Here are the actors of Ellis Island:
Helen Cohen (Poland): Lesley Fera
James Apanomith (Greece): Johnathan McClian
Lillian Galletta (Italy): Samantha Sloyan
Lazarus Salamon (Hungary): Dean Chekvala
Helen Rosenthal (Belgium): Kira Sternbach
Manny Steen (Ireland): Barry Bostwick
Katherine Beychok (Russia): Lyn Greene
Barry Bostwick, the jolly Irish is a must-hear. It's not just about the depressing and tragic stuff. :)
