The MSU Symphony Orchestra plus Choral Union, State Singers, and University Chorale performs a panoramic program depicting aspects of the sea. R. Vaughan-Williams used text from poems by Walt Whitman including “The Waves” and “On the Beach at Night Alone” for his magnificent Symphony No. 1, A Sea Symphony. The final ripple of the program presents beauty and wonder with Benjamin Britten’s Four Sea Interludes. Octavio Más-Arocas and Sally Yu, conductors.

Generously sponsored by Interim President Teresa K. Woodruff, Ph.D., and Thomas V. O’Halloran, Ph.D.
