The Cleveland Orchestra opens with Rite of Spring

Severance Hall Springs Open
Thu 9/23 & Sat 9/25 at 8PM

The Cleveland Orchestra has just returned from their triumphant European Tour (“erects a cathedral of sound that rests on the foundation of transcendence.” Kronen Zeitung [The Abbey of St. Florian]), and are now kicking open the doors of the hallowed Severance Hall with the classic roof-raiser The Rite of Spring, by Igor Stravinsky, which caused riots when it first premiered in 1913.

Here’s hoping a riot of Clevelanders will storm the doors at Severance and give our returning artistic ambassadors a hero’s welcome! http://www.ClevelandOrchestra.com
