Set in four movements, A New Orleans Symphony captures the pain, despair, and destruction brought on by Hurricane Katrina in August 2005. This powerful work draws from several familiar tunes, including the hymn tune "Nettleton," "Oh When the Saints," and "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot." The fourth & final movement, "Play!," injects some hope as the vibrant city is rebuilt.
