Story Time

Harmony Sinfonia invites you to an enchanting evening of timeless tales at their next concert, **Story Time**, on Saturday, 29 November. The local orchestra will transport listeners through a journey of vivid characters—from fairy‑tale princesses and Arabian sailors to Russian aristocrats—by weaving together some of the most beloved pieces of the orchestra repertoire. The program begins with Prokofiev’s playful 1938 suite from the film *Lieutenant Kijé*, a satirical celebration that pokes fun at the bungling “tsar” Paul. It is followed by Tchaikovsky’s luminous suite from the 1889 ballet *Sleeping Beauty*, itself a musical retelling of the Grimm fairy tale. The evening closes with the sumptuous, golden orchestral tone poem **Scheherazade** by Rimsky‑Korsakov, a sumptuous evocation of *The Arabian Nights*. Join us for a concert that blends drama and melody, celebrating the magic of stories through music. Details and tickets are available at the provided link.
