Light up your January with music of sparkling beauty and colorful excitement! Music Director Bernard Rubenstein will lead the Fargo-Moorhead Symphony Orchestra in a program that will stir your imagination and senses. The delicate and gently erotic “Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun” by French Impressionist composer Claude Debussy opens the concert, followed by Frederic Chopin’s brilliant and lovely Piano Concerto No. 2 featuring guest pianist Jihye Chang Sung. The Russian legend of the puppet “Petrouchka” comes to vivid life in the concert’s second half through Igor Stravinsky’s colorful and dramatic music.
