Immerse yourself in an orchestral experience that will keep you on the edge of your seat as Thomas Søndergård conducts Stravinsky’s groundbreaking and radical ballet score The Rite of Spring. Lili Boulanger’s Of a Spring Morning brings a sweet, playful beginning to this program that truly puts the entire ensemble at the center. In between, and also orchestrated for dance, Ravel’s Mother Goose ballet includes five tender and nostalgic miniatures inspired by fairy tales.
