Time to get in gear for Festival III: Steampunk Edition with this high-octane opening concert featuring the entire Windwood Music Festival. We'll start our journey with Shostakovich's piano quintet, where the prolific composer spells out the initials of his own name in a musical cryptogram. Once that puzzle has been set, we'll jump to the future with Jessie Montgomery, Duke Ellington, and Radiohead. We end with the wildly charismatic Kapustin concerto for violin and piano featuring Windwood founders, Duo Perdendosi, as well as Claude Lapalme, the conductor of the Red Deer Symphony Orchestra. This showstopper will also feature a string chamber orchestra of Windwood and Red Deer Symphony musicians. Come dressed in your steampunk best!
