2Robert Kahn conducts a chamber ensemble behind them with meticulous menace. Phantasmagorical upper-register piano over hazy strings is a big part of the picture, as are Hankey’s agitated flights to the heights. Stark cello! A doomed, foggy baritone voice! Pregnant pauses!

Rita E. Hauser Conducting Fellow Robert Kahn leads the orchestra in Igor Stravinsky's Symphonies of Wind Instruments, which draws upon Russian folk music. Alumnus and faculty member Alan Morrison (Organ '91, Accompanying '93) performs the solo in the exuberant Toccata Festiva by Samuel Barber (Composition '34). Rounding out the program is Richard Strauss's Also sprach Zarathustra, which audiences will recognize from the Stanley Kubrick film 2001: A Space Odyssey.
