Experience A Soldier’s Story & A Fiddler’s Tale in a Unique Musical Journey
On Saturday, February 8, 2025, music lovers and families alike will have the chance to experience two legendary compositions in a powerful live performance as Igor Stravinsky’s L’histoire du soldat (A Soldier’s Story) and Wynton Marsalis’ A Fiddler’s Tale take center stage. This event will bring to life these masterful works, blending storytelling, music, and movement in an immersive performance.
Stravinsky’s L’histoire du soldat, a morality play for narrator, dancers, and orchestra, remains one of the most celebrated works of the 20th century. The timeless tale of a soldier’s deal with the devil unfolds through a striking fusion of music and drama, making it a compelling experience for audiences of all ages.
Pulitzer Prize-winning composer and jazz icon Wynton Marsalis reimagined this classic with A Fiddler’s Tale, offering a fresh perspective infused with jazz elements. His adaptation brings a contemporary voice to the narrative, creating a dynamic contrast with Stravinsky’s original.
