1925: Dancing as Fast as They Could
April 23 at 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm
One hundred years ago, the musical and cultural world was full of flux and uncertainty after World War I. Maurice Ravel introduced his second opera, L’enfant et les sortileges, with a libretto by Colette. At the same time, the Jazz Age was in full swing; F. Scott Fitzgerald published The Great Gatsby, and Charlie Chaplin enjoyed one of the biggest successes of his career with The Gold Rush. Suzanne Martinucci, frequent panelist on the Metropolitan Opera Quiz broadcasts, presents a talk on this frenetic and fascinating year. Tickets $25. Reserve through EventBrite.
