A soldier. A violin. A devil. A world being born.
EVOLVE brings two theatrical works together in one intimate concert of story, rhythm, and transformation. In La Création du Monde, The Creation of the World, Darius Milhaud turns a creation myth into a jazz-infused ballet, shaped by the sound world he encountered in Harlem. In L'Histoire du soldat, The Soldier’s Tale, Igor Stravinsky tells a sharp, unforgettable story of a soldier who trades his violin, his heart and soul, to the Devil for unlimited wealth.
With Aaron Lamb, Producing Artistic Director of Harlequin Productions, joining as narrator, EVOLVE becomes a concert where music speaks, stories move, and every choice carries a cost.
