The Seattle Symphony is currently presenting a "Coming to America" festival, featuring music of composers who came here from other countries. I just wrote an article about the rediscovery of a piece that was thought lost, written by seven important composers, six of them European composers in exile in Hollywood during WWII. A fascinating story, with some Agatha Christie-ish overtones. I'm hearing the piece tonight. It was recorded a few years back, but this is the first time it's being performed "live" since its one and only performance in 1945.
