The famous music from the symphonic poem The Sorcerer’s Apprentice by Paul Dukas tells the story of what happens when someone summons spirits and then does not know how to tame them. Our December concert will be dominated by this wild, colorful, danceable music. It is a sign that magical creatures are awakening from their slumber. Fortunately, in the run-up to Christmas, the angels, who have the power to defeat all evil, are always present.
