Stravinsky's "The Soldier's Tale"

Members of Cabrillo's music department along with other local guest musicians and dancers present Stravinsky's dark Faustian fable about a deserting soldier and the Devil who eventually possesses his soul. The story is based on an old Russian folk tale but the music is as far removed from Russian traditionalism as possible, making it a lesson for all cultures and times. Proceeds for this concert will go entirely to scholarships for Cabrillo College music students.
