A “CSO Resound Retrospective”: Music of Prokofiev , Bates and Clyne

Prokofiev made five trips to Chicago in his lifetime. During Prokofiev’s last trip to Chicago, in January 1937, he led the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in selections from his new, still-unstaged ballet, Romeo and Juliet. Tune in tonight at 7:00 to hear Riccardo Muti's "take" on this classic work. Tonight at 7:00 on the “Evening Concert” on WILL-FM 90.9 CSO Music Director Riccardo Muti leads the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in a collection of works issued on the CSO Resound label: Anna Clyne’s “Night Ferry”, Mason Bates’ “Alternative Energy” and Prokofiev’s Suite from “Romeo and Juliet”.
