Led by Klaus Mäkelä, the CSO presents one of the most electrifying and revolutionary works in the orchestral repertoire: Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring. Included in this showcase of 20th-century masterpieces are the playful, Brazilian-inspired rhythms of Milhaud’s Le Bœuf sur le toit and Gershwin’s An American in Paris, which brings the bustling streets of the French capital to life with jazzy flair.
