A festive opening of a new season. Bernstein's Chichester Psalms is an impressive composition based on Hebrew psalm texts. By Caroline Shaw will sound And the Swallow, inspired by psalm 84 which features a swallow. The evening concludes with Stravinsky's famous ballet Petrushka about the adventures of the puppet "Petertje. Colorful music that, even without the dance, lets you experience every note of the story.
