Evoking a variety of cultural influences and storytelling traditions, we set the stage with Samuel Barber’s “Overture to “The School for Scandal”, full of playful, dramatic flair, capturing the essence of mischievous characters. Leanna Primiani’s 1001 shines a new light onto the legendary Sheherazade heroine with music that explores her psyche through the use of electronics. And finally, Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov’s legendary symphonic tale transports you to the magical world of the Arabian Nights, where each note unfolds a mesmerizing tale. Come let us sweep you into realms of imagination and adventure!
