Ballet Jörgen

Symphoria

Cantus

AnastasiaCanada’s Ballet Jörgen brings us the magical tale of Anastasia. A Russian Grand Duchess, born to privilege, is cast out into a post-revolutionary world…what will become of her? This full-length ballet is rich with incredibly detailed costumes, versatile sets, and exquisite lighting. Created by acclaimed choreographer and Artistic Director Bengt Jörgen, Anastasia is set to an original orchestral score by Russian/Canadian composer Ivan Barbotin.

Discovery of Sight

Acclaimed as “the premier men’s vocal ensemble in the United States” (Fanfare), the 8 male voices will perform seasoned masterpieces like Richard Strauss’ Traumlicht and Franz Schubert’s Die Nacht, and break new ground with Eric Whitacre’s Lux Aurumque and a brand-new commission from Gabriel Kahane.
