Overview

The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra pays tribute to one of Atlanta's own, the global human rights leader Coretta Scott King, who will be honored for her centenary birthday in 2027. Conductor Kedrick Armstrong makes his ASO debut with two new works commissioned for the occasion — one by composer Carlos Simon and a piece by Jasmine Barnes, who won a 2023 Capital Emmy Award for the PBS documentary, "Dreamer," about her song cycle, "Portraits: Douglass and Tubman." The concert includes Loud, a work by Jimmy López, chronicling the struggle for human rights among members of the LGBTQ community, as well as works by Bernstein, Florence Price, and William Grant Still.
