Guest Artist\nSimon Rivard, conductor\nDanika Lorèn, soprano\n\nOn the Program\nJohn Kander & Fred Ebb: Cabaret, from “Cabaret” - 4 minutes\nKurt Weill: Suite from The Threepenny Opera (arr. Simon Rivard) - 20 minutes\nWilliam Bolcom: Cabaret Songs - 10 minutes\nDmitri Shostakovich: Waltz from Jazz Suite No. 2 - 4 minutes\nJacques Ibert: Divertissement - 15 minutes\n\nThe evening opens with music from John Kander and Fred Ebb’s Cabaret, bringing the sound of the theatre straight into the hall, lively, a little cheeky, and sometimes quietly reflective. Songs by William Bolcom follow, continuing that cabaret tradition with music that feels close, personal, and directly connected to the words.\n\n\nWorks by Kurt Weill, Dmitri Shostakovich, and Jacques Ibert bring variety to the second half of the program, from the well-known waltz by Dimitri Shostakovich to theatrical songs and lighter orchestral pieces, creating an evening shaped by stage music, memorable tunes, and strong character.\n\nPresented By\nQuidi Vidi Brewery
