Popular and classical music collide in this electrifying opening night to the Sinfonietta’s 37th season! Laura Karpman's film suite from The Marvels showcases powerful female superheroes, while Japanese composer Joe Hisaishi captures a daring heroine’s whimsical journey with Kiki’s Delivery Service. Guest vocalist Laurin Talese enchants with iconic hits from Broadway and her own original composition. Pulsating dance rhythms infuse Horacio Fernández’s Latin American-inspired Tumbao, and mambo along to Bernstein’s irresistible Symphonic Dances from West Side Story, a timeless commentary on love and belonging.
