Wouldn’t it be nice if a person who loved you wrote a song (or a whole concerto!) to celebrate who you are and how deeply they love you? Well, that might be asking too much for most of us, but not for our guest artist and her composer husband, Bella Hristova and David Ludwig. When they married, he wrote for her the concerto we are performing for you in this concert, and we’ve invited her to be the soloist. Let the sparks fly and feel the love on Valentine’s Weekend!


You might have heard of two other lovers named Romeo and Juliet. While things did not work out well for them, the longing and the passion they felt for each other (thank you, Shakespeare!) has been immortalized in Tchaikovsky’s Romeo and Juliet. We guarantee this music will transport you. Come to the concert and find out where it will take you.


Scriabin’s Poem of Ecstasy is exactly what love is: quiet, soothing, joyous – and messy, loud, and chaotic! We really can’t call this one a love song, but it is a song about love. Of course, you will get to decide for yourself when you hear it.
