Igor Stravinsky's "The Soldier's Tale"
Patrick and I caught a CSUS production of this piece tonight. Chase Spruill, IV (who plays on This Is Ain't Betty) was, as usual, phenomenal on violin. It was, for the most part, a nice presentation. Until the dance section - which probably shouldn't have been performed by non-dancers - and at which point, the guy behind us asks, "what the F*** is going on?" - this of course puts poor patrick in near hysterics - and you've ever heard patrick laugh, it's not really something that can happen in a classical music venue. anyway, if you've never heard the music, it's quite interesting.
