wcf symphony: Strings And Swing
Jazz meets the concert hall in this genre-blending evening of bold musical expression. Saxophonist Simon Harding and the Iowa Bop Collective—an ensemble of top jazz artists rooted in the Cedar Valley—take the spotlight in Charlie Parker with Strings, a heartfelt tribute to the legendary bebop innovator. Their Iowa-grown take on this iconic work bridges traditions with style and soul. The night concludes with Mendelssohn’s radiant Symphony No. 4, a joyful journey inspired by his travels through Italy.
