ONN launches the season with a program that offers an exploration of musical wit and transformation across time.Portland Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Caroline Shaw’s Entr’acte, inspired by the elegant surprises of Haydn’s string quartets, juxtaposes classical refinement with unexpected turns.
Anna Clyne’s Sound and Fury, inspired by Haydn’s Symphony No. 60 and Shakespeare’s Macbeth, is imbued with visceral energy and literary allusions that echo both Shakespearean drama and Haydnesque contrast. At the center of the program stands Joseph Haydn’s Symphony No. 60, Il Distratto, a fusion of humor and invention, originally composed for the stage.
Together, these works offer a rich dialogue between past and present, revealing how composers continue to reinvent the concert experience with imagination and daring.
