SUMMARY:Rimsky-Korsakov – Scheherazade
DESCRIPTION:Historic texts\, tales\, and sea-faring travel inspire a program conducted by Dinuk Wijeratne—who is also a pianist and JUNO® award-winning composer. Perhaps it was kismet that Borodin’s opera Prince Igor was completed by Rimsky-Korsakov\, because it went on to provide a hit tune on Broadway. The storytelling prowess of the legendary Persian Queen Scheherazade enchanted the Sultan in the tales of One Thousand and One Nights—Rimsky-Korsakov’s own suite does the same for music lovers. \nConcert underwritten by Commodore & Mrs. Jan Drent and Natexa Verbrugge \n\nCONCERT SPONSOR

SUMMARY:Kluxen – Brahms\, Britten\, and Brown
DESCRIPTION:“What harbor shelters peace\, away from tidal waves\, away from storms?” Starting with a misty sunrise on a Suffolk seascape\, the tempest-tossed drama of Britten’s opera Peter Grimes is neatly condensed into his moving instrumental suite. Tragedy is also addressed in Stacey Brown’s new song cycle\, drawing on texts by Danish author and poet Naja Marie Aidt. Aware of his own mortality\, Brahms penned a cornerstone of the symphonic repertoire\, his Symphony No. 4\, a work of profound depth that many consider his finest. \nConcert underwritten by Sara Neely\nMireille Lebel underwritten by George Lovick \nWe acknowledge the support of the Canada Council for the Arts.
