SUMMARY:Olympia Symphony Presents EVLOVE: Stravinsky's The Soldier's Tale
DESCRIPTION:A soldier. A violin. A devil. A world being born.\n\nEVOLVE brings two theatrical works together in one intimate concert of story\, rhythm\, and transformation. In La Création du Monde\, The Creation of the World\, Darius Milhaud turns a creation myth into a jazz-infused ballet\, shaped by the sound world he encountered in Harlem. In L’Histoire du soldat\, The Soldier’s Tale\, Igor Stravinsky tells a sharp\, unforgettable story of a soldier who trades his violin\, his heart and soul\, to the Devil for unlimited wealth.\n\nWith Aaron Lamb\, Producing Artistic Director of Harlequin Productions\, joining as narrator\, EVOLVE becomes a concert where music speaks\, stories move\, and every choice carries a cost.
