Romeo and Juliet
January's concert is a celebration of some of history's greatest love stories—and the music that brought them to life. Ravel's Daphnis and Chloé is a luxurious score that beautifully captures the blossoming of young love in a pastoral setting. Romeo and Juliet has inspired unforgettable music from many composers, from Tchaikovsky to Bernstein. This time, we turn to Prokofiev, whose energetic and exotic score vividly expresses the passion and tradedy of these iconic, star-crossed lovers.
