Journey across flowing rivers and boundless seas in this program of sweeping musical storytelling. Smetana’s Vltava paints a vivid portrait of the Moldau river’s winding path through the Czech countryside, while Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade conjures the shimmering tales of the One Thousand and One Nights, where the ocean’s mystery and adventure spring to life through dazzling orchestral color.

Stravinsky’s L’Histoire du Soldat (The Soldier’s Tale) is a timeless fable of temptation, loss, and wit—where a soldier trades his fiddle to the devil in a tale told through sharp rhythms, vivid characters, and a lean, colorful ensemble. Blending music, narration, and theater, this inventive work captures both the humor and the haunting edge of a story as old as time.
