Rachmaninoff & Dance
ESO Pairings Presented by Tumbler & Rocks

Rachmaninoff & Dance

Conducted by Michael Stern
Friday, May 17 8:00 PM

ESO Pairings are a great introduction to classical music. With shorter programs, no intermission, and a later start time, Pairings concerts give you the ideal chance to fit exciting live music into your busy schedule. Plus, one free food or beverage item is included with every ticket.

Enjoy Sergei Rachmaninoff’s Symphonic Dances – a collection of three colourful movements that are both delightful and captivating. You’ll also hear Ravel’s hauntingly beautiful work La Valse, and even though it never became the ballet it was meant to be, you can still imagine the “glimpses of waltzing couples” and “an immense hall.”
