Nostalgic selections from The Nutcracker, a beloved ballet and one of Tchaikovsky’s most well-known compositions, will bring in wintery cheer. Even though Mozart never wrote a full ballet, he included the dance and accompanying music as part of his opera Idomeneo. Works by 20th century French composers Ibert and Tailleferre round out the program with elegance and charm.Prelude
Patrons of this event are invited to attend a prelude presentation before this concert on Thursday, November 28th, starting at 6:45 PM in the Upper Circle Lobby (3rd Floor). This talk by Natalie Boisvert is a fantastic way to learn more about the pieces being performed in your concert.
