Carlos Simon’s music challenges us to explore our past to mourn, celebrate and take ownership. This time, the gateway is dance—with ties to American slavery, Reconstruction and Jim Crow. Chopin Competition winner Bruce Liu says “Do not find yourself in the music, but find the music in yourself.” He’ll play Sergei Prokofiev’s dazzling Piano Concerto No. 3. The season concludes with Sergei Rachmaninoff’s rhythmic Symphonic Dances.
