WALLCAST® Concert: The Seven Deadly Sins
Oct 19, 2024
Starting: 7:30 PM
The New World Symphony kicks off its annual WALLCAST® Concert Series with a gripping double bill. Enjoy live classical music projected onto Soundscape Park’s massive outdoor screen—free of charge.
The season begins with The Seven Deadly Sins on Saturday, October 19. This program pays tribute to victims of war and fascism through a stark contrast of two iconic works: Viktor Ullmann’s The Kaiser of Atlantis and Kurt Weill’s The Seven Deadly Sins. Ullmann’s opera, composed in the harrowing Terezín concentration camp, is a poignant reflection on the human spirit, while Weill’s satirical ballet offers a biting critique of society.
Under the baton of Artistic Director Stéphane Denève and featuring soprano Danielle de Niese, this performance is a must-see.
