SUMMARY:Performance:The Philadelphia Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:In his 12th year as music director of The Philadelphia Orchestra\, Yannick Nézet-Séguin has created a new golden age for the ensemble\, and we’re thrilled to close our 2023/24 season with two performances by the Orchestra.\n\nSaturday night’s program opens with Rachmaninoff’s warm and melodious Symphony No. 2\, a lush and sentimental work of immense power and beauty that has not been performed on a UMS program in over 30 years. The program also features Florence Price’s Symphony No. 4\, which incorporates melodies from spirituals\, including a beautifully-orchestrated theme from “Wade in the Water”\; The Philadelphia Orchestra’s Grammy-winning record of Price’s first and third symphonies (2022 “Best Orchestral Performance”) helped spark intense global interest in the Arkansas-born composer.\n\nSunday afternoon’s season finale puts the UMS Choral Union on display with Johannes Brahms\, who poured his soul into his utterly personal German Requiem\, which was composed after the death of his mother. Unlike previous requiem masses by Mozart and Berlioz\, which were set in a Catholic\, Latin text and focused on loss and those who had died\, Brahms used excerpts from the Lutheran Bible to create a requiem that offers comfort to those left behind and celebrates the joy of remembrance.\n\nPROGRAM (SAT 4/20/2024: HILL AUDITORIUM)\nSergei Rachmaninoff Symphony No. 2 in e minor\, Op. 27\nFlorence Price Symphony No. 4 in d minor\n\nJoin host Doyle Armbrust for “The Society of Disobedient Listeners” — a special pre-performance talk before Saturday evening’s performance\, 6:30 pm in the lower lobby of Hill Auditorium.\n\nPROGRAM (SUN 4/21/2024: HILL AUDITORIUM)\nJohannes Brahms Ein deutsches Requiem\, Op. 45

SUMMARY:Performance:A Little Night Music
DESCRIPTION:Stephen Sondheim creates a stunning tour de force when he takes Ingmar Bergman's comedy of manners\, *Smiles of a Summer Night*\, and turns it into a musical of masterful execution and elegance. Winner of four Tony Awards\, *A Little Night Music* has long entranced the world of theatre.\n\nSet in 1900 Sweden\, *A Little Night Music* explores the tangled web of affairs centered around actress Desirée Armfeldt and the men who love her: a lawyer by the name of Fredrik Egerman and the Count Carl-Magnus Malcom. When the traveling actress performs in Fredrik's town\, the estranged lovers' passion rekindles. This sparks a flurry of jealousy and suspicion among Desirée\; Fredrik\; Fredrik's wife\, Anne\; Desirée's current lover\, the Count\; and the Count's wife\, Charlotte. The men and their wives agree to join Desirée and her family for a weekend in the country at Desirée's mother's estate. With everyone in one place\, abundant possibilities for new romances and second chances bring endless surprises.\n\n*A Little Night Music* is full of hilariously witty and heartbreakingly moving moments of adoration\, regret\, and desire. This dramatic musical celebration of love showcases highly trained singers with its harmonically advanced score and masterful orchestrations\, and it includes Sondheim's popular song\, the haunting \"Send in the Clowns.\"\n\nMusic & Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim \nBook by Hugh Wheeler\nDirector Telly Leung\nMusic direction by Catherine A. Walker\n\nFUN FACTS: When Sondheim wrote “Send in the Clowns” for original actress Glynis Johns\, who had a distinctive voice but struggled to sustain long passages\, he built in frequent pauses for her to breathe. \n\nAside from Glynis Johns\, many notable actresses portrayed Desirée Armfeldt over the years\, including Judi Dench\, Bernadette Peters\, Catherine Zeta-Jones\, and *Ted Lasso*’s Hannah Waddingham.
