Experience the awe-inspiring blend of nature and music with the Quad City Symphony Orchestra's Masterworks IV: The Stars Above & Sands Below. This captivating concert, conducted by Mark Russell Smith, takes you on a journey from the creation of heaven and earth to the serene beauty of space, and down to the gritty sands below. The performance features a selection of works that celebrate the natural wonders that surround us, starting with Franz Joseph Haydn’s "The Depiction of Chaos" from The Creation, followed by Mary Howe’s "Stars and Sand," Michael Abel’s "Liquify" with its premiere accompanying film, and concluding with Beethoven’s stormy "Pastorale Symphony."
