This show is a festive celebration featuring three well-known works.  We open with the main theme from "Swan Lake", Tchaikovsky's beloved ballet.  We have a powerful fanfare followed by a flute soloist stating the main variations before bringing the opener to a dramatic finish.  This is followed by a contrasting ballad based on the "Symphony No. 3" by Saint-Saens.  The first half is a slow ballad similar in style to the music from the movie "Babe".  The show concludes with a rendering of several variations based on "Simple Gifts", the traditional Shaker hymn.  Our show comes to an exciting finale sure to bring the audience to its feet!
