Music in the Times of Crisis: A Solider's Tale by Igor Stravinsky

In their first video series, Music in the Times of Crisis, the Aspect Chamber Music Series presents the context for remarkable music in critical times. For this video premier on Groupmuse, Michael Parloff (principal flute @metopera until his 2008 retirement) sets the stage for Stravinsky’s “The Soldier’s Tale”, composed at the time of the Spanish Flu (1918). We will watch the lecture together, enjoy the final moments of the piece, and discuss the production together.
