“The ancient Romans told stories to explain the world
around them. These stories told of the rising and setting of the sun, the wind
and the waves, the seasons, and even why battles were won or lost.”
Internationally
renowned Artists By Any Other Name are proud to present their original
production, “The Planetarium”.
Through the marriage
of music and dance, you will hear the stories of the biggest characters in the
night sky – and the heavenly rulers whose names they bear.
A perfect school holiday cultural treat, the
program includes selections from:
· Beethoven String Quartet op. 18/1 and op.
18/4
· Haydn String Quartet op. 76/6
· Borodin String Quartet no. 2 in D major
· Hindemith String Quartet no. 1 in C major
· Jennifer Higdon Sky Quartet
This performance is the
culmination of the Young Artist Exchange annual Creative Experiences workshop.
Artists By Any Other Name (the ensemble-in-residence for Young Artist Exchange)
