Erie Philharmonic: Discovering Americana

Season 2020 Episode 3 | 56m 48s

We come home to celebrate the diversity, independent spirit, and bold creativity of our native composers. From George Gershwin’s blues-tinted tunes to the good humor of Leroy Anderson, the deeply-felt spirituality of Erie’s own Harry Burleigh, the fresh ragtime sounds of Scott Joplin, to the modern motoric rhythms of Jennifer Higdon, the American musical landscape is vast and steeped in creativity
