The Fulton Theatre and Lancaster Symphony Orchestra (LSO) will present Igor Stravinsky's "The Soldier's Tale" on Friday, June 4, at 7 p.m. and Wynton Marsalis' "A Fiddler's Tale" on Friday, June 18, at 7 p.m. The performances are available free of charge through the FultonHD and LSO At Home virtual platforms.
"The Soldier's Tale" tells the story of a young World War I-era soldier who sells his soul to the devil in exchange for the promise of unlimited wealth. This performance will be available to view for 30 days beginning June 4.
"A Fiddler's Tale," by American trumpeter Marsalis, has quickly become a companion piece and modern response to "The Soldier's Tale." This imaginative retelling moves the story to the Mississippi Delta, where Beatrice Connors, a young fiddler, is seduced by the smooth assurances of a record producer named Bubba Z. This performance will be available to view for 30 days beginning June 18.
