About this Concert

Love, loss, redemption, and enlightenment. Kris Bowers’ work, For a Younger Self, was inspired by the hero’s journey and the electrifying artistry of violinist Charles Yang, who makes an exciting return to Powell Hall. Miguel Farías paints a dynamic portrait of life in the southernmost region of South America. And Sergei Rachmaninoff recounts his own life’s journey in a capstone work, Symphonic Dances, which serves as a poignant, powerful anthology of musical memories.
