No Place Like Home with Illinois Philharmonic Orchestra

About this concert from IPO:

Markand Thakar, music director of the Duluth Superior Symphony Orchestra and the Baltimore Chamber Orchestra, leads the IPO in a program bursting with melody. Copland’s Fanfare for the Common Manheralds the equality and nobility of mankind as the U.S. was thrust into World War II; Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2, one of classical music’s greatest hits, is Russian to the core; and Dvoˇrák’s Symphony No. 8 is a lively sketch of his beloved Bohemia. Join us for a “world cruise” for the senses!
