A little (open-air) night music

Presented by ProductAV

September 25 & 26, kick back and relax on The Field at Stanley Marketplace for our first socially distanced outdoor performances! In his Holberg Suite, Edvard Grieg mashes up a traditional baroque structure with the lush romantic sound popular in his day in his genre-bending work. Then be immersed in two rich, raw and layered masterpieces — George Walker’s Lyric for Strings and Samuel Barber’s Adagio for Strings. The world premiere of Threnody by Christopher Marshall is one composer’s empathetic response to racial injustice and our country’s collective pain as we continue to see brutality against our Black, Indigenous and neighbors of color. The evening concludes with the bright, familiar and joyous serenade, Eine kleine Nachtmusik by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Lawrence Golan conducts three performances of the all-string chamber orchestra.
