Bela Bartok’s mythic parable Cantata Profana: "The Nine Enchanted Stags" anchors this concert of magical stories told through music and spoken word. Also on the program is Felix Mendelssohn’s seldom heard “The First Walpurgis Night” which tells the treacherous tale of a Druid pagan masquerade. We conclude with Alexander Borodin’s exotic Polovtsian dances from his opera "Prince Igor.” Join the 170-voice Chorale, full symphonic orchestra, soloists, and narrator for this spectacular program.
