Monsters Galore

The University Symphony marks Halloween 2018 with an assortment of musical monsters – some frightening, some friendly – from legends, fairy tales, and classic films. Antonin Dvorák’s The Water Goblin, Anatoly Liadov’s Baba Yaga, and Igor Stravinsky’s Infernal Dance of King Kaschei are paired with excerpts from Franz Waxman’s The Bride of Frankenstein and James Newton Howard’s King Kong for a fun-filled program featuring costumes, story-telling, special effects. Choreography and dancing by the Hyde Park School of Dance. Once again, Maestra Schubert makes a very special entrance down the Mandel Hall aisle to start the program.

Admission free. Donations suggested: $10 general, $5 students/children
Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult. Audience costumes encouraged.

7:00 PM and 9:00 PM
