Cuban-American composer Ivette Herryman-Rodriguez’s A Danzon Done My Way puts a fresh spin on the traditional Latin dance form. Some of The University of Southern Mississippi’s most outstanding students will be featured as winners of the annual William T. Gower Concerto Concerto Competition.

Perhaps Stravinsky’s most colorful score of his three great ballets for the Ballet Ruse, Petrushka entrances with soaring melodies and rhythmic vitality. This story of a mischievous puppet brought to life helped the composer find his mature voice, which would change the world.
