The Long Bay Symphony concludes its 2021 Classical Series with From the Sublime to the Ridiculous, a program serving up pieces in a fascinating variety of styles featuring narrators/singers Shannon Kessler Dooley and Jeffrey Jones. From Romantic opera composer Richard Wagner’s unique miniature work, Siegfried Idyll (a musical tribute to the birth of his son), to Façade, an edgy yet charming setting by Sir William Walton of Dame Edith Sitwell’s humorously outrageous poetry. Mexican composer Silvestre Revueltas weaves a wild pastiche of motives from native folk tunes in Ocho por Radio, while Gustav Mahler wonderfully conveys the essence of the German folk spirit in his song settings from Des Knaben Wunderhorn.
Join the Long Bay Symphony for the final Classical Series concert of the season on April 18th at 4:00PM.
