Charms, Spells and Enchantments
Dukas: The Sorcerer’s Apprentice
Falla: El Amor Brujo, Spanish classical dancer, Fanny Ara
Stravinsky: The Rite of Spring
We will begin with Dukas’ perennial favorite, The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. Our younger fans will remember this piece from Disney’s Fantasia.
We’ll feature the magic of Spanish dance with Falla’s "Love and the Magician", originally composed as a smaller "Gypsy Piece", the story of Candela the Gypsy girl, whose love for Carmelo is tormented by the ghost of her faithless former lover. The "Ritual Fire Dance" section is one of the best known in the classical repertoire.
Finally, we close with Stravinsky’s ballet, Le Sacre du Printemps (The Rite of Spring). Also featured in Fantasia, this work has, over the years, inspired awe, love, adoration, amusement, anger and even riots at its first performance. Acknowledged as one of the great masterworks of 20th century music, it includes sections labeled "Spring Rounds", "Mystic Circle of the Young Girls", "Ancestral Spirits", and "The Sacrificial Dance".
