Program and Details

The season begins with a spark of imagination and mischief.

Coleridge-Taylor’s Overture opens with sweeping lyricism, setting the stage for violinist Alexi Kenney to bring his wit, charm, and effortless brilliance to Mozart’s spirited Concerto No. 3 for a shimmering display of virtuosity.

Stravinsky’s Petrushka bursts to life in a prism of color and explosive rhythms, painting the story of a petulant puppet with orchestral brilliance.
