| Price: Sek. 155 | And in 1966, at the age of 83, Stravinsky made his one and only visit to the Eastman School of Music, overseeing performances of several of his works. Under Mark Scatterday, who continues in the prestigious lineage as only the fourth conductor in the EWE’s history, the superior student ensemble performs Stravinsky’s Octet, while Eastman Virtuosi, made up of the Eastman School’s renowned faculty members, turn in a devilishly fine rendition of A Soldier’s Tale. Jan Opalach delivers an exceptionally nuanced narration as well as portraying the folk tale’s two protagonists, Joseph the solider and the Devil. |
