The show also featured fan favorite The Marcus Roberts Trio, part of a residing artist collaboration with the nearby Lobero Theatre.
Marcus Robert also performed his Gershwin-inspired composition for piano and orchestrated “Rhapsody in D.”
Veteran maestro Nir Kabaretti also conducted Charles Ives’ joyous “Symphony No. 2,” including American folk tunes, hymns and patriotic melodies in the concert’s raucous uproarious finale.
