TCHAIKOVSKY: Romeo & Juliet Overture- Fantasy
DE FALLA: Three Dances from The Three-Cornered Hat
String Concerto TBA

Explore the realms of love, conflict, and tradition through three masterful works as we celebrate the enduring power of music and dance. 

Tchaikovsky’s “Romeo and Juliet” sets the tone with its emotional depth, inspired by Shakespeare’s tale of tragic love. Tchaikovsky infused his personal sorrows and artistic vision into this piece, influenced by the profound impact of Eduard Zak’s tragic death. Opening with a stirring introduction, the music explores themes of conflict and doomed romance. The love between the star-crossed lovers soars beautifully before succumbing to familial animosity. This masterpiece has resonated through countless films and shows, securing its place in cultural history. 

Dive into the vibrant world of Manuel de Falla’s ballet, “The Three-Cornered Hat,” a groundbreaking work that transformed the dance landscape. Drawing on traditional Spanish dance techniques and based on Pedro Antonio de Alarcón’s novel, de Falla’s creation dazzles with dynamic energy. Envisioned by Diaghilev and brought to life by Massine and Picasso, this cultural journey across Spain culminated in an unforgettable debut at London’s Alhambra Theatre. Prepare to be swept away by music and movement that pulse with life, evoking the spirit of Spain with every note and step. 

The strings concerto, to be announced, will feature the winner of the 2026 Ann & Charles Eisemann International Young Artist Competition.

Join us for an enchanting evening filled with emotional resonance, cultural richness, and extraordinary talent.
