SUMMARY:Grand Rapids Symphony: Grand Rapids Ballet Symphony of Movement
DESCRIPTION:We are proud to kick off our 2024-25 season in October with Symphony of Movement\, a dynamic first-ever collaboration between GRB and the Grand Rapids Symphony at the Peter Martin Wege Theatre. Conducted by GRSO’s music director Marcelo Lehninger\, the symphony shares the stage with the dancers\, featuring three acclaimed works and one world-premiere. Programming includes master choreographer Lar Lubovitch’s tender duet for two men\, from his work Concerto 622\, set to the adagio of  W.A. Mozart’s famous clarinet concerto. Created during the AIDS crisis in 1985\, the work reflects on the themes of friendship and support amidst challenging times. Aubade\, choreographed by James Sofranko\, is an emotionally charged pas de deux that loosely follows a story of the goddess Diana and a mortal man who enters her domain\, set to a score by Francis Poulenc\, featuring piano soloist Liz Ames. Ave Maria\, also choreographed by James Sofranko\, is a captivating duet accompanied by the ethereal music of Carlos Gomes\, with the two dancers appearing to transcend reality\, gracefully navigating a world suspended among the wind and clouds. The final work featured in the program is a World Premiere choreographed by Jennifer Archibald set to Edvard Grieg’s Holberg Suite. As a leading voice in contemporary dance\, Archibald’s work is seen around the world\, and this will be her third original work for Grand Rapids Ballet.

SUMMARY:Lansing Symphony Orchestra: Enigma Variations
DESCRIPTION:Our 95th season begins with a journey through musical lineage and stylistic homage\, featuring cellist Tommy Mesa. The concert opens with Gala Flagello’s “Bravado\,” embodying dynamic energy\, which paves the way to the classical grace of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Symphony No. 31 “Paris”. This symphony’s Rococo style echoes in Tchaikovsky’s “Variations on a Rococo Theme\,” performed by Mesa\, where the cello dialogues with a theme reminiscent of the elegance Tchaikovsky admired in Mozart’s compositions. The program concludes with Edward Elgar’s “Enigma Variations\,” where the thematic genesis becomes a canvas for Elgar’s rich\, emotional landscapes\, mirroring the evening’s exploration of known themes transformed into new\, intricate musical narratives.
