Wayman Chin | Sweet Land | Faculty Artist Recital
Marking the nation's 250th anniversary, pianist Wayman Chin, Longy faculty member and dean emeritus, plays a program built around the American psyche: works by Copland, Barber and Bernstein; Beethoven's Seven Variations on “God Save the King,” the tune Americans sing as “My Country, ’tis of Thee”; and pieces by contemporary composers Jeremy Van Buskirk and Nico Muhly, whose Refine is a short variation on “America the Beautiful.”
