MusicaNova Orchestra will present the lighter side of classical music with “Laughing With Prokofiev” at the Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix.
The evening of wit, parody, and classical music starts at 6 p.m. Sunday, May 18.
The one-of-a-kind concert showcases some of classical music’s most brilliant composers — Sergei Prokofiev, Igor Stravinsky, Joseph Haydn, and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart — as they turn tradition on its head with humor and charm.
The program will include Mozart’s “Overture to The Magic Flute,” Prokofiev’s “Classical Symphony,” Stravinsky’s “Pulcinella Suite,” Haydn’s “Symphony No. 60 ‘Il Distratto’ (The Absent-Minded Man).”
“These composers—often seen as serious and scholarly — were actually having a great deal of fun,” Warren Cohen, conductor and music director, shared in a press release. “This concert reminds us that laughter and levity have always had a place in the concert hall.”
Tickets range from $33.50 to $38.50 at themim.org.
The MusicaNova Orchestra is a professional ensemble that features new music and interpretations of the classics.
