\nA Boundary-Pushing Concert at Meyerson Symphony Center<\/p>\n

This Saturday, April 25, the Dallas Symphony Orchestra<\/a> presents\u2026 wait for it\u2026 Stravinsky X Kendrick Lamar. (Let that sink in.) This one-night-only, boundary-pushing concert blends Igor Stravinsky\u2019s \u201cPetrouchka\u201d with tracks from Kendrick Lamar\u2019s Pulitzer Prize-winning album \u201cDAMN.\u201d<\/p>\n

Steve Hackman composed and will conduct this \u201cunexpected musical conversation between two icons separated by a century, weaving themes of identity, struggle, love, fear, and redemption into a single narrative arc.\u201d Sounds like a tall task, but we are *intrigued.*<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the DSO performs Stravinsky\u2019s vibrant, character-driven ballet score, the music seamlessly transitions into Lamar\u2019s classics like \u201cLOYALTY.,\u201d \u201cXXX.,\u201d and \u201cHUMBLE.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ready to experience Stravinsky through a fresh lens? Tickets for the concert at Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center start at $68 and can be purchased online<\/a>.<\/p>\n
