The Turbulent 30s
Before diving into a frenzy of this new year, the red plush seats of the Center for Fine Arts beckon. The New Year gets off to a promising start with a performance by the breakthrough talent Elim Chan, who made her successful debut last season with the Belgian National Orchestra. Viennese waltzes, wild polka and catchy film scores provide unexpected encounters and musical fireworks at the beginning of 2019.
