The SFCM Orchestra presents Aqua, composed by Canadian Vivian Fung and inspired by one of Chicago’s most eye-catching skyscrapers, the Aqua Tower. This concert also features Tchaikovsky’s popular Piano Concerto No. 1 and concludes with Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 11, a vivid and descriptive work often described as a film score without a film. This concert features guest conductor Earl Lee, SFCM conducting student Jason Gluck as well as SFCM Piano Concerto Competition winner Oliver Moore.
