From Russia With Love
Music

Description
Description
An all-Russian program (with a nod to James Bond). Works by Tchaikovsky, Stravinsky, Shostakovich and Kapustin.
A young, dynamic group of award-winning musicians, Western District is taking the traditional classical-music experience and turning it upside-down. Why do classical concerts have to be so scripted? Why does the audience have to sit so far away? Why not clap between movements? Who says you can’t cheer during a performance?
It’s time to change the rules! Western District might perform tango, arrange Daft Punk, improvise, pour some wine, invite listeners to sit on the stage — they might even let you pick what they’ll play!
