If you’re looking for an evening filled with wow moments only a live orchestra can deliver, — the kind that helps you forget your phone and feel fully present — this concert is for you.

The night opens with Florence Price’s Dances in the Canebrakes—heard on Spotify more than 2 million times and brought to life by Deeply Rooted Dance Theater. Amy Beach’s sweeping Gaelic Symphony and Marianna Martines’ bright, energetic Sinfonia in C Major follow, delivering the big, cinematic, lyrical moments that make live orchestra captivating.

In the second half, Deeply Rooted returns to the stage for Shirley J. Thompson’s Seventh Sense: Incidents in the Life of Queen Amanirenas — a dramatic, movement-filled portrayal of the queen seeking guidance from her warrior ancestors as she prepares to halt Emperor Augustus’ push into Africa.
