SUMMARY:Brahms X Radiohead
DESCRIPTION:Steve Hackman\, conductor \nThis performance takes place at Stifel Theatre. \nJoin conductor Steve Hackman and your SLSO for Brahms X Radiohead—an epic symphonic synthesis of two landmark pieces of music: Radiohead’s album OK Computer and Johannes Brahms’ First Symphony. Composed for full symphony orchestra and three solo vocalists\, Brahms X Radiohead offers a reimagined experience of each work by seeing it through the lens of the other\, exploring the explosive tension and deep pathos they have in common. \nThroughout this 80-minute fusion performance\, Radiohead’s off-kilter\, rock melodies weave in and out of Brahms’ 19th-century orchestral sound palette. Immerse yourself in Brahms’ symphony with Radiohead’s themes and lyrics superimposed and the music of Radiohead filtered through the counterpoint and harmonies of Brahms. As the music moves seamlessly from one to the other\, we’re left wondering which is which and how the combinations are possible. \nA few things to know:  \n\nAfter the premiere of Brahms’ First Symphony in 1876\, a critic called it “one of the most individual and magnificent works of the symphonic literature.” It had taken him almost 20 years to complete\, in part\, because of his anxiety about following in the footsteps of Beethoven. Brahms’ Symphony No. 1 launched the composer into international fame\, however\, leaving a profound impact on the art form\, with many calling him Beethoven’s heir.  \nOK Computer—with its depiction of a dystopian future fraught with consumerism\, alienation\, and isolation and its experimental and densely layered sound—is often cited as one of the greatest rock albums of all time. When Radiohead released the album in 1997\, the five-member English band was propelled from indie-rock fame to being named band of the year by both Rolling Stone and Spin magazines. OK Computer\, Radiohead’s third album\, was nominated for Album of the Year and won Best Alternative Music Album at the 1998 Grammy Awards.\nSteve Hackman is among a generation of classical musicians seeking to redefine the genre. He is the creator of a production concept called FUSE\, which synthesizes classical and popular music. He has conducted these fusion productions with numerous orchestras and has worked with some of today’s biggest pop stars—including Kanye West\, Doja Cat\, and Andrew Bird—to add a classical dimension to their work. He was trained at the Curtis Institute of Music and The Juilliard School.

SUMMARY:Carmina Burana
DESCRIPTION:Stéphane Denève\, conductor\nYing Fang\, soprano\nSunnyboy Dladla\, tenor\nThomas Lehman\, baritone\nSt. Louis Symphony Chorus | Andrew Whitfield\, guest director\nSt. Louis Children’s Choirs | Alyson Moore\, artistic director\n  \nArvo Pärt Cantus in Memoriam Benjamin Britten\nLera Auerbach Icarus\nRichard Wagner “Liebestod” from Tristan and Isolde \nCarl Orff Carmina Burana \n\nThis concert takes place at Stifel Theatre.\nLet us do the driving! Reserve your seat on the Symphony Shuttle from Plaza Frontenac or St. Louis Community College – Forest Park. Shuttle tickets are $15 per passenger and depart 75 minutes prior to the concert.\n\n“O fortuna!” Right from its famous opening notes\, Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana shakes the Stifel to its foundation. Orff’s work charts the course of fate with songs of joy\, love\, and celebration. Stéphane crafts a first half trilogy of loss and fateful farewell. In Arvo Pärt’s Cantus in Memoriam Benjamin Britten\, pure sounds are as if directly descended from heaven\, then Lera Auerbach brings us to the heat of the sun in Icarus. In the Love-death from Richard Wagner’s Tristan and Isolde we end with a salute to eternal love. \nA few things to know:  \n\nFrom Disney movies to Superbowl commercials\, from Wrestlemania to beer ads\, Carmina Burana has seeped into every nook and cranny of our culture. But its source material is obscure\, a 13th-century collection of songs and poems that was lost for six centuries. Carl Orff was confident in the work\, writing to his publisher\, “Everything I have written to date can be destroyed. With Carmina Burana my collected works begin.”\nRichard Wagner’s Tristan and Isolde is a tale of forbidden love. Isolde is an Irish princess. She is being taken by Tristan\, against her will\, to Cornwall. There she will marry his uncle\, King Marke. On the way\, Isolde tries to poison them both. Instead\, a love potion causes them to fall in love. In the “Liebestod” (“love-death”)\, Isolde laments the death of Tristan\, gradually engulfed by love and by her own death.\nRussian-born Lera Auerbach is a very modern creator: conductor\, pianist\, composer\, poet\, and visual artist. “I have long been fascinated by the story of Icarus\,” she writes. “Exhilarated by freedom\, by his own youth\, by the feeling of light\, Icarus soared higher and higher until the wax on his wings melted and he fell into the ocean. Oh\, gravity!”
