R. STRAUSS Till Eulenspiegel
SAINT-SAËNS The Carnival of the Animals
STRAVINKSY Petrushka

Music Director Andreas Delfs leads the RPO in a collection of musical stories. Richard Strauss’ Till Eulenspiegel tells tales of a medieval German trickster, with the first heroic motif spelling out the syllables of his name. Petrushka tells a story drawn from Russian folktales. Stravinsky’s score brings the title character into human experiences, including soaring love and tragic death.

WXXI Classical presents the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra’s 2022-2023 season on Mondays at 8 p.m. on Classical 91.5/FM-HD 91.5-1. Brenda Tremblay hosts.

This concert will repeat on Monday, August 28 at 8pm.
