It Takes Two: A Symphonic Collaboration

Calgary Philharmonic and One Yellow Rabbit co-present It Takes Two: A Symphonic Collaboration as part of the 40th annual high performance rodeo

Warm up your January with a symphonic escape and join the Calgary Phil, led by conductor Fawzi Haimor as they bring the heat with bold rhythms, sweeping drama and a dash of Parisian charm in this wide-ranging evening.

The Calgary Youth Orchestra joins the Phil in a side-by-side performance of Valerie Coleman’s powerful call for unity in a divided world with Umoja: Anthem of Unity, and Canadian cellist, Luka Coetzee takes centre stage in Prokofiev’s fiery Sinfonia concertante.

Not hot enough? Feel the heat as Alberto Ginastera’s high-octane Argentine dances light the fuse followed by a wistful wander through Parisian streets with George Gershwin’s An American in Paris.

A vibrant, wide-ranging night of music and one unforgettable ride.

Satisfy your wanderlust without leaving your seat.
