Americana Pops

Featuring Llewellyn Sánchez-Werner, piano

Celebrate the spirit, rhythm, and character of American music in a program that moves effortlessly between concert hall, jazz club, and parade ground. From the unmistakable voice of Duke Ellington to the brilliance of Gershwin, this program reflects a distinctly American sound that is bold, expressive, and continually evolving. Pianist Llewellyn Sanchez-Werner brings virtuosic energy to Gershwin’s I Got Rhythm Variations, while a tribute to Louis Armstrong and original works by Parmer Fuller add both celebration and occasion. A joyful opening to the Diamond Season, this program captures music that feels both timeless and deeply rooted in place.
