After the opening brief piece, Overture to Theater Set, by African American composer Ulysses Kay, pianist Aaron Diehl came on stage to perform Variations on I Got Rhythm by Gershwin. Shortly after the start of the piece, Aaron Diehl suddenly stopped and was escorted off stage by Thomas Wilkins During a previous performance at Walt Disney Concert Hall, the power went out shortly after Aaron Diehl began a performance of a different Gershwin piece. After a pause, Diehl left the stage but the power was restored, Diehl returned and accomplished a standing ovation. However, this time, he did not return and the audience was never given an explanation. My assumption was sudden illness.<\/p>\n<p>Soprano Julia Bullock brought calm to the Bowl with a delightful voice and beautiful attire singing poetic songs by George Gershwin and African American composer Margaret Bond. The second half opened with William Grant Still&#8217;s little known Singing River and concluded with an arrangement of George Gershwin&#8217;s Porgy &amp; Bess: A Symphonic Picture. The program ended early due to the undefined circumstances of Aaron Diehl without explanation.
