The one-of-a-kind jazz pianist Marcus Roberts’s world-premiere commission has already created buzz. Robert Spano raises the temperature with highlights from Bernstein’s pulsating score for West Side Story, a new work by the Orchestra’s own Michael Kurth, and Christopher Theofanidis’s beloved Rainbow Body.
