DEFIANCE
October 16 @ 7:30 PM PDT
Kedrick Armstrong conducts Oakland Symphony in a program about resistance, social change and the cost of creative freedom. The concert culminates in Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 11, The Year 1905, whose public celebration of Soviet glory carries a subversive undercurrent.
The program also includes Anthony Davis’s “Prison Aria” from the opera Malcolm X, Karim Al-Zand’s Lamentations on the Disaster of War, and a medley of music by Elaine Brown, Tracy Chapman and Lauryn Hill.
