Some moments demand a double take: Romeo catching sight of Juliet across a crowded ballroom, a synthesizer taking the stage where the piano should be. This program explores impossible and intoxicating pairings. Sergei Prokofiev conjures Shakespeare’s star-crossed tragedy in all its beauty and brutality — forbidden love, violent delights, and violent ends. Grandson Gabriel Prokofiev offers his own unlikely pairing with the first-ever concerto for Asheville’s own Minimoog, where acid house collides with the classical and shattering convention becomes a family tradition.
Kabalevsky: Overture from Colas Breugnon
Gabriel Prokofiev: Concerto for Minimoog Synthesizer and Orchestra
