Inspired by the legend of The Firebird - a magical glowing bird from Slavic folklore - Stravinsky’s Firebird dazzles from first note to heart-pounding finale. It’s the music that made Stravinsky an overnight star, putting the world on notice that a genius had arrived.
Soprano Angel Blue makes her Houston Symphony debut in Florent Schmitt’s beyond-epic Psalm 47, and a Julia Wolfe world premiere kicks off this celebratory, season-opening program, conducted by Houston Symphony Music Director Juraj Valčuha.
The concert will feature both the Houston Symphony Chorus and Houston Chamber Choir.
