Orchestras in National Effort for Peter Boyer Rhapsody Project

As the country becomes aware of the first 50 state project commissioning a major new work for piano and orchestra without buy-ins from each orchestra, it is important to gratefully share the list of seventy-seven orchestras taking part in bringing about new music for piano and orchestra, and, piano, orchestra and chorus into the repertoire spanning a quarter-century. The styles of music are diverse, as are their composers in works listed below the orchestra names. Joining our country together now through music, is becoming a common mission among musicians and communities within the orchestral community. To also celebrate the centennial of George Gershwin's iconic Rhapsody in Blue in 2024, starting with summer 2023 through the 2023-24-25 seasons, Peter Boyer's new Rhapsody in Red, White & Blue can potentially embrace every state of the USA, now bringing in orchestras representing their states. Unlike projects allowing one premiere per state, as there are no buy-ins required from orchestras, and, all funds have been acquired supporting the composer's fee and copying costs, we can allow more than one state performance within the two-year exclusive period to launch this new model for bringing new music to the public.

Thank you to the following orchestras for their dedication and participation in the twenty-three projects listed below the orchestra list. For details about the Peter Boyer Rhapsody in Red, White & Blue, please contact me directly at biegel88@yahoo.com
