New York City Ballet
New York City Ballet’s Coppélia
Wednesday, July 9 at 7:30PM
Thursday, July 10 at 7:30PM
Friday, July 11 at 7:30PM
One of the greatest comic ballets of the 19th Century, Coppélia has remained one of the best-loved classical works in the ballet repertory. The three-act ballet features a lush, melodic score by Delibes, a fairy-tale set and extensive ensemble dances. Coppélia was commissioned by SPAC and held its world premiere in Saratoga in 1974.
The Philadelphia Orchestra
The Planets
Thursday, August 7 at 7:30pm
One of the foremost conductors of our time, Marin Alsop, leads Gustav Holst’s iconic The Planets, a work that has inspired generations of sci-fi film composers, featuring the ferocity of “Mars, the Bringer of War”, the high-spirited “Jupiter, the Bringer of Jollity,” and the ghostly suspense of “Neptune, the Mystic.” Holst’s exciting, cosmic score features a seven-movement orchestral suite, with each movement named after a planet of the Solar System and its corresponding astrological character as defined by Holst.
Stravinsky, Rachmaninoff & Still
Wednesday, August 13 at 7:30pm
Philadelphia Orchestra Music and Artistic Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin returns to Saratoga to lead two unique programs that can only be heard at SPAC. This program opens with the suite from Igor Stravinsky’s The Firebird. Italian pianist, Beatrice Rana, returns to SPAC for the first time in more than a decade, performing Rachmaninoff’s inventive Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini. Through SPAC’s and The Philadelphia Orchestra’s continued efforts to explore works by underrepresented composers, the program closes with the rarely performed Second Symphony by William Grant Still.
Verdi’s Requiem
Thursday, August 14 at 7:30pm
Called “one of the most sublime and terrifying works in the repertoire” (NPR), Verdi’s Requiem is filled with transcendent moments from the ineffably sorrowful “Lacrymosa,” to the heavens-shaking final judgement of the “Dies irae,” to the hushed finale blessed by grace. The evening-length work features an all-star cast with soloists from the Metropolitan Opera stage alongside the Albany Pro Musica Chorus. Philadelphia Orchestra Music and Artistic Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin returns to lead the program, bringing the score to life with his masterful interpretation.
Copland & Bates with Time for Three
Thursday, August 21 at 7:30pm
Led by “2022 Musical America Conductor of the Year” Teddy Abrams, this program highlights the sounds of American music from past to present. Experience iconic works by Aaron Copland and Samuel Barber, and a SPAC premiere by contemporary composer Mason Bates, featuring genre-bending trio Time for Three.
