Ensemble Connect by Fadi Kheir
Echoes of Stravinsky resound in a unique performance by Carnegie Hall’s musically omnivorous Ensemble Connect. Joan Tower’s “Petroushskates” is inspired—as its name suggests—by both Stravinsky’s Pétrouchka and the flowing motions of figure skating. Wynton Marsalis’s A Fiddler’s Tale reimagines Stravinsky’s The Soldier’s Tale suite, adding further emphasis to the composer’s characteristic early-jazz ingredients.
