Beethoven + Borodin
Beethoven’s firework 8th Symphony and Borodin’s familiar and raucous Polovstian Dances (featuring the Symphony Chorus) bookend a concert with a quieter middle. Charles Griffes’ “Poem” features WSS principal flutist Kathryn Levy, celebrating her 50th season with the orchestra; Quinn Mason’s recent “Princesa de la Luna” is a palette of colors and textures for a string orchestra with harp.

Storm Large
A composition that begins ‘a naked woman running mad through the pure night,’ Bizet’s operatic temptress Carmen, and the scandalously great Storm Large guides us through the seven deadly sins in song.
