Keith’s Corner Inspiring music Brevard Music Center
Aug 18 all-day
Online
Keith shares the music of American composer Gabriela Lena Frank. Her Three Latin American Dances for Orchestra include the “Jungle Jaunt,” “Highland Harawi,” and “The Mestizo Waltz.” The featured recording is of Keith Lockhart conducting the Utah Symphony in 2004.

One of my great joys at Brevard is being able to share with you symphonic music that is special to me. Keith’s Corner will allow me, albeit virtually, to continue to do that. Join me here as I share stories with you about the music that I love…some of the music that made me fall in love with orchestras, some works that have produced memorable moments during my years at Brevard, and some of the music that touches me most profoundly. It will also be an opportunity to, on occasion, introduce you to a gem you may not have yet discovered. Join me for a completely personal, somewhat subjective and, I hope, entertaining listening experience! – Keith Lockhart
