Valerie Coleman’s now-famous Umoja for woodwind quintet and her Red Clay and Mississippi Delta open an evening of music that all seems to have been written for Tougaloo College’s Woodworth Chapel. Works by Mississippi-born William Grant Still reflect roots and Harlem blues, while the jazz piano ebullience of James P. Johnson’s Yamekraw is unleashed by piano soloist Stephen Sachs. The Native-American and African American infused melodies of Dvorak’s American String Quartet are an enchanting close to our concert season.

Chamber 4: Vibrant Echoes

Tougaloo College

This delightful evening takes full advantage of Woodworth Chapel’s excellent acoustics – from Saint-Saens’ vibrant Septet to Mozart’s virtuosic Oboe Quartet featuring MSO’s Julie Hudik. Don’t miss the welcome return of Jessie Montgomery’s mesmerizing Strum in the spotlight with the Mississippi Symphony String Quartet and Stravinsky’s Three Pieces for Solo Clarinet in a standout moment for MSO’s new Principal Clarinet
