“...sheer dramatic charm and vocal clarity...” — San Francisco Chronicle on Chaieb
Maestro Tausk takes us on a musical tour of Spain with two works from Manuel de Falla and Bizet’s beloved Carmen Suite No. 1. Rising Canadian-Tunisian vocal star Rihab Chaieb will captivate you and de Falla’s comic ballet will have you dancing in the aisles. ¡Viva la música!
Join us at 7:00pm for a very special prelude concert with the VSO School of Music Sinfonietta ensemble on the Orpheum stage and then after the concert for a post-concert Q&A with the guest artists.
