Music and Dance through January 20
Tue, Jan 12, 2010
The KC Symphony’s concerts this weekend feature impressive guest conductor Bernard Labadie leading the local band in repertoire he knows well, that of Schubert and Mozart. Benedetto Lupo as the guest pianist will perform the Mozart Piano Concerto No. 18, a perennial favorite. If dance is more to your liking, there is a free performance by the Kansas City Friends of Alvin Ailey on Thursday night and a tap dancing tribute at the Carlsen Center on Saturday. Rob Kapilow, the effervescent lecturer for The Friends of Chamber Music’s "What Makes it Great?" series, is back in town this weekend for discussions of Chopin. Among community orchestras, the Topeka Symphony launches the 2010 portion of its schedule with an interesting program featuring music based upon great heroes of history. This week offers a little something for each taste!
