Iris Unveiled
Seattle Symphony
Music Director Xian Zhang introduces Seattle audiences to the dramatic, sensuous and completely unique sound world of Peking opera with Qigang Chen’s Iris Dévoilée (Iris Unveiled). Writing for Peking and Western-style singers and traditional Chinese instruments, he evokes Iris, the Greek goddess of the rainbow, and “eternal feminine” aspects — simple, coy, wanton, sentimental, jealous, melancholy, hysterical, lustful .... Balancing this music is the dark drama of Shostakovich’s Fifth Symphony. Composed at a moment of political oppression and personal danger, its ambiguities and secrets reveal themselves differently to each listener, though its urgent and ecstatic finale always thrills.

Mozart’s Magic Flute - Opera in Concert
St. Louis Symphony Orchestra
“I’m always in awe of Mozart. There is no one like him,” said Music Director Stéphane Denève, whose earlier experiences conducting opera forever impacted his appreciation for Mozart’s brilliant musical mind. The Magic Flute introduces a cast of unforgettable characters, including the villainous Queen of the Night and the quirky, yet relatable Papageno, in a story that blends fairy tale and philosophy. One of Mozart’s most brilliant orchestral scores, this magnificent, extravagant opera-in-concert production combines the talents of the SLSO, a cast of acclaimed vocalists, and the “impeccable” (KDHX) St. Louis Symphony Chorus.

Mozart's Requiem
Orchestra e Coro
dell’Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia
The Requiem K 626 represents Mozart’s final, ultimate masterpiece, a work that even today retains an intact aura of mystery between legend and historical truth. The sudden death of the Salzburg genius left the score unfinished, fueling tales of dark conspiracies and anonymous commissions for centuries. Under the direction of Jérémie Rhorer, the Orchestra e Coro dell’Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia give voice to this spiritual testament of rare beauty.
