The New York Time calls Taylor 2 "One of the most exciting, innovative, and delightful dance companies in the entire world." Paul Taylor, celebrated as the "world's greatest living choreographer," is the inspiration behind this magnificent company of six superb dancers which specializes in "American Jazz Dance."

 

Nationally known baritone, Douglas Webster, has performed the title role in opera's "Don Giovanni," played Jean Valjean in "Les Miserables" on Broadway, appeared with numerous major orchestras across the country, visits classes K-12 and gives master classes to colleges and music festivals. His accompanist is Lincoln Mayorgra whose professional success transcends the varied worlds of concert music, popular music, studio work, and jazz.

 

I love New York and the Lights of Broadway brings you the live energy of Big Time Show Biz in an exciting, fast-paced, melody-packed revue. Selections will include familiar Broadway songs by Cole Porter, Rodgers & Hart, Bernstein, Sondheim, and Webber.

 

Brad Stirtz, born and raised in Minden, NE, now living in Chicago, will present a musical potpourri of everything from Bach to Rock. While living in Chicago, Brad has developed a reputation as an outstanding professional mallet percussionist both on the stage and in the studio.

 

Returning for a second year, the Omaha Symphony Chamber Orchestra, under the baton of resident conductor, Ernest Richardson, will once again bring the excitement of a live symphony performance to our city. Celebrating its 80th year, the Omaha Symphony continues to be the primary resource in the Midlands for great orchestral music.
