OVERVIEW

Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite takes flight in this spectacular program led by Utah Symphony Music Director Designate Markus Poschner.

First, GRAMMY®-winning trio Time for Three—known for their genre-defying blend of classical, Americana, and contemporary styles— takes the stage for Kevin Puts’ Contact, the winner of a GRAMMY® for Best Contemporary Classical Composition. Written specifically for the group by the Pulitzer Prize-winning composer, the work explores themes of human connection and highlights the trio’s dynamic, longtime partnership with the Utah Symphony.

Then, hear one of the most thrilling pieces ever written echoing through the Wasatch Mountains as the orchestra takes you on a journey from the explosive “Infernal Dance” to the powerful finale of Stravinsky’s Firebird.
