Romeo & Juliet

Romeo and Juliet, BYU, Brigham Young University, Theatre

There “never was a story of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo.” In one of the Bard’s most-beloved plays, these “star-crossed lovers” are from two of Verona’s most powerful families. But the conflict between the houses of Montague and Capulet overwhelms the young couple’s attempted union and happiness, causing an entire city to contemplate the true cost of greed, power, and social standing.

BYU presents the NOVA Chamber Players

Chamber Music Instruments, Nova Chamber Players, Cello, Violin, Classical Music, BYU, Brigham Young University, FREE, Concerts, Utah County, Utah ValleyThe School of Music at Brigham Young University will welcome Utah’s celebrated NOVA Chamber Music Series in a free concert Tuesday, February. 8, 2011 at 7:30 p.m. in the Madsen Recital Hall.

The performance will start with Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber’s “Annunciation” from the Rosary Sonata No. 1, followed by Bach’s Trio Sonata in C major, BWV 1037. The chamber ensemble will continue with a commissioned work by BYU composition faculty member Steven Ricks and will conclude with Brahms’ Sextet in G major, Op. 36.

The performance is directed by the Utah Symphony principal keyboardist Jason Hardink, who performed as a guest artist at BYU in January. NOVA musicians to play at the concert include Gerald Elias and Hasse Borup, violin; Julie Edwards and Carl Johansen, viola; Walter Haman and Kevin Shumway, cello; and Jason Hardink, harpsichord and organ.

According to its website, NOVA’s 2010–2011 concert season, dubbed “10.11,” focuses on the consummate works of the chamber music repertoire. Their programs explore the national musical identities of both Russia and Italy and will feature masterpieces by Bach, Brahms and Schumann, as well as contemporary pieces by local composers.

The NOVA Chamber Music Series was founded in 1977 by Utah Symphony clarinetist Russell Harlow. In 1986, Utah Symphony violinist Barbara Scowcroft was appointed as the group’s artistic director. During her tenure of 18 seasons, the series continued the innovative programming and artistic growth of the previous decade and in 1999 received the Utah Governor’s Award for the Arts.

BYU Theatre Ballet presents Cinderella

BYU Theatre Ballet presents Cinderella, Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah, Utah County, Dance Performance, Valentines, Romantic

BYU Theatre Ballet will celebrate its 40th year by bringing the popular romance to life with original choreography by artistic director Shani Robison and live accompaniment of Sergei Prokofiev’s magnificent score by the BYU Philharmonic conducted by Kory Katseanes.

“The BYU Philharmonic will perform with BYU Theatre Ballet in a full-length ballet for the first time since the 1980s,” said BYU ballet faculty member Lynne Thompson. “That, coupled with beautiful dancing will add to the overall appeal of this classic tale that whisks audiences far away to the land of ‘happily-ever-afters.’ It’s a perfect fit for celebrating Valentine’s Day.”

An exciting addition to “Cinderella” that area royalty won’t want to miss will be the children’s “Prince and Princess Party” which will begin an hour before each performance in the de Jong Concert Hall lobby.

“Children can dress up in their prince and princess costumes to meet Cinderella, Prince Charming, the Fairy Godmother, and all of her fairies,” said Thompson. “Parents are welcome to bring cameras to take pictures with the dancers.”

Need to woo your valentine? Bring a date to BYU’s Museum of Peoples and Cultures (MPC) to experience a night of Egyptian culture and cuisine on Valentine’s Day. The Egyptian-themed date night “Sphinxes and Sweethearts” will begin at 7:00 that evening.

“We created this date night as a means to educate participants about ancient Egyptian culture in a relaxed, casual setting,” said Anna McKean, promotions manager at the MPC.

The evening will be filled with competition, prizes, learning, and food. Couples will have the chance to win prizes through three different activities: a mummy-wrapping race, a set of three different games (Pyramid, Egyptian Balderdash, and “Matching of the Gods”), and painting hieroglyphics. Mediterranean refreshments will also be provided for the couples to enjoy.
