Upcoming Concerts
Rite of Spring, Sibelius 2 and Dumbarton Oaks
Come with us on a journey through three powerful visions of musical transformation. Igor Stravinsky’s Dumbarton Oaks, a neoclassical gem whose elegance and wit conceal dazzling rhythmic invention. From there, we plunge into the raw, elemental force of The Rite of Spring, the groundbreaking masterpiece that shook the musical world with its primal rhythms and ritualistic energy. To close, we ascend toward triumph with Jean Sibelius’s Symphony No. 2 — a sweeping work of yearning, resilience, and ultimate exultation. Together, these pieces trace a path from refinement to upheaval to renewal — a testament to music’s power to provoke, challenge, and uplift
