Skull and Bones is a symphonic showcase meets Halloween dance party. Classic orchestra showpieces like The Sorcerer's Apprentice, "Mars" from The Planets, Danse macabre, and the finale of Shostakovich's 5th Symphony are played in their original form then remixed and combined with electronic beats; layered with vocal stems of Post Malone, Muse, Drake, and Adele; woven into dancehall floor-killers.
There will be 2 performances of this program: Friday, October 27, 8pm at The Music Center at Strathmore; and Saturday, October 28, 8pm at Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall.
