The evening opens with music from John Kander and Fred Ebb’s Cabaret, bringing the sound
of the theatre straight into the hall, lively, a little cheeky, and sometimes quietly reflective. Songs
by William Bolcom follow, continuing that cabaret tradition with music that feels close,
personal, and directly connected to the words.
Works by Kurt Weill, Dmitri Shostakovich, and Jacques Ibert bring variety to the second half
of the program, from the well known waltz by Dimitri Shostakovich to theatrical song and
lighter orchestral pieces, creating an evening shaped by stage music, memorable tunes, and strong
character.
