La Jolla Symphony & Chorus's yearlong survey of Stravinsky continues with two brilliant folk-tales from the early twentieth century: Stravinsky’s portrait of a folk wedding in pagan Russia (Les Noces), featuring four pianists, chamber chorus, and Lux Boreal dancers choreographed by UCSD’s Allyson Green; and Bartok’s magical story of nine young hunters transformed into wild stags (Cantata Profana) scored for orchestra and chorus. Plus two much more recent pieces: György Ligeti’s daring work for 100 metronomes (Poème Symphonique), each at a different tempo, and David Lang’s rambunctious Grind to a Halt. Conducted by Steven Schick and David Chase.
