The Concord Orchestra presents “Dancing in Disguise.” The orchestra, conducted by Music Director Zeke Fetrow, performs music by Anna Clyne, Gabriel Fauré, and Pytor Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Clyne’s short composition, Masquerade (2013), was inspired by pleasure gardens in London in the 18th century. The four movements of Fauré’s Pelléas et Mélisande Suite were selected from incidental music he composed for a play. Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 3 “Polish” gets its nickname from the polonaise rhythm in its finale.  It was written slightly before Swan Lake and contains some similar musical themes and delightful dance rhythms.
