October 15, 2017
Music Direction & Conducted by Matilda Hofman
Our 55th season opener centers on two composers inspired by Shakespeare’s timeless love story, Romeo and Juliet. Separated by less than 70 years, these compositions imagine the famous tragedy in wildly different ways, from the unearthly and fierce beauty of Prokofiev’s ballet score to the lush romanticism and high drama of Tchaikovsky’s tone poem.
Running Time: approx. 2 hour 15 mintues, with one intermission
