This concert speaks to a composer’s use of time as an element of their works. Strauss is looking backward by composing something that was appropriate to 1753; Beethoven’s Septet is a piece that was in the moment when it was written; and Ligeti’s Six Bagatelles is modernist and forward looking.

Tickets: $60 – $20, $10 Young Adults (19-35),
Kids Come Free! (under 19)
