SPRING SERIES PERFORMANCES
DrumLine LiveThursday February 19, 2009
Dinner/Exploration: 6pm
Performance: 8pm
DrumLine Live brings to the stage a show-stopping marching band ensemble from America’s top historically black colleges and universities. Created by the musical team behind the hit movie, this showdown of rhythm and speed between the percussion “lines” features great music from past brass masters, alongside the hottest contemporary hip-hop and R&B. Add the dynamic sound of trumpets and explosive choreography performed by the athletic “steppers,” and DrumLine Live is a spectacle of the highest magnitude.
East Village Opera CompanyFriday April 3, 2009
Dinner/Exploration: 6pm

You’ve heard opera, and you’ve heard rock. Now, hear opera rocked! Featuring a five-piece rock band, string quartet, and two outstanding vocalists, East Village Opera takes the towering emotion and musicality of opera and transforms it for the 21st century with driving power-rock arrangements. Hear opera’s “greatest hits”— including “La donna è mobile” the “Habanera” from Carmen, and “Nessun dorma”—as you’ve never heard them before…full length and in the original languages.
Underwritten by Andrew Chen and Heidi Mass.
