Ever since its 1928 premiere, Kurt Weill's Threepenny Opera has been one of the most oft-performed works of 20th-century musical theater. The Sammamish Symphony Orchestra presents an instrumental suite from this timeless masterpiece, which includes its most famous song, "Mack the Knife." The concert is rounded out by music of the Italian Baroque (Locatelli), the early Romantic period (Schubert), and the music of old Vienna (Josef Strauss). The concert concludes with two effervescent and lighthearted suites by Igor Stravinsky.
