Thursdays @ Three is pleased to welcome renowned classical and flamenco guitarist Pepe Romero. He has been honored by kings, heads of state, and major institutions-the encomiums continue to pour in. But to Romero, his most important contribution has been reaching the common man. He has communicated the richness and beauty of the classical guitar to millions of people throughout the world. He has, indeed, become an ambassador of classical music, and, correspondingly, of the classical guitar.

Portland Baroque Orchestra will preview selections from their upcoming concert – Love, Chaos, and Restoration. Lutenist John Lenti leads this program of English chamber music alongside Monica Huggett, an intimate string ensemble, and Portland soprano Arwen Myers.

15 years after Norwegian house wife Nora Helmer walked out on Ibsen’s Torvald, she walks back in the front door in the sequel to the 1879 social drama. In the ensuing years of her departure, Nora has become an incendiary writer — which isn’t a profession that married women could perform without permission. Since her husband didn’t sign the divorce papers, Nora has returned to the house she desperately sought to vacate to gain her freedom. With a quick wit and razor-sharp tongue, A Doll’s House, Part 2 imagines the continuation of the house of Helmer as a deliciously gleeful trek through the complicated waters of relationships.

“…smart, funny and utterly engrossing new play.” -Ben Brantley, The New York Times

Directed by: Tamara Carroll

How did you become who you are today, and what dreams have you let go? In an airport, where everyone is busy going somewhere, The Delays focuses on a group going nowhere. Taking place around the new year, and traveling back ten years, and then another ten years, the past lives of these characters slowly reveal themselves, while asking bigger questions.Written by local playwright, Sara Jean Accuardi, following tradition of our winter commissioned works.

“Messy and real, Accuardi treats all her characters with the respect they deserve without being afraid to let them be hurt and hurt each other.”
Nicholas Vasilios Pappas

“…Not only is Accuardi memorable… but Accuardi’s talent and work ethic also made her stand out.”
Kate Loftesness, The Oregonian

Midnight is just the beginning…
Against the backdrop of Prokofiev’s luscious score, Ben Stevenson’s ballet brings Cinderella to life with both slapstick humor and lush romanticism. Cinderella suffers cruelly at the hands of her step-mother and two step-sisters, and yet is loving enough to offer a poor beggar woman some bread when she knocks at the door. Little does she know that the beggar woman is really her Fairy Godmother, prepared to grant her most fervent wish – to go to the Prince’s ball. Cinderella’s magical night unfolds against the backdrop of gorgeous sets and spirited dancing. But when the clock strikes midnight, Cinderella must make a choice – to tell the Prince who she really is, or return to a life overshadowed by her stepmother’s cruelty. A triumphant tale of courage, hope, wishes … and magic.

Music score by Sergei Prokofiev

There are very few true living legends in the world of classical music, few who have sustained greatness and grown throughout their lives. Pepe Romero is such an artist. He has been honored by kings, heads of state, and major institutions-the encomiums continue to pour in. But to Romero, his most important contribution has been reaching the common man. He has communicated the richness and beauty of the classical guitar to millions of people throughout the world. He has, indeed, become an ambassador of classical music, and, correspondingly, of the classical guitar.

The Beaverton Symphony Orchestra Brass brings lively ensemble music several brass ensembles to the Beaverton City Library on February 23rd to welcome spring.

This concert will have music to please any listener.

“…smart, funny and utterly engrossing new play.” -Ben Brantley, The New York Times

Featuring the winners of the student soloist competition and the 20th Century’s all-time symphonic icon, Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring. Premiered in Paris 106 years ago, the “Rite” remains to this day as “revolutionary and fresh as if it had been composed yesterday,” according to Maestro Carlson. The scoring requires a huge orchestra of virtuoso players, including oddly enough, two Wagner tubas that Corvallis audiences are most accustomed to hearing in Bruckner and Mahler symphonies. To open the program, three or four of the Orchestra’s outstanding students who were winners in the October 25th auditions will be featured in solos and concertos of their choice.

Combine two of the world’s greatest concert pianists, two incredible pianos, and one of Portland’s most beautiful spaces, and you have an evening of unparalleled music. Join CMNW favorites Orion Weiss and Shai Wosner for this powerful program of piano masterworks by Brahms, Schubert, and David Lang in the first-ever concert in the acoustically superb Congregation Beth Israel, considered one of the finest examples of Byzantine-style architecture on the West Coast.

Co-presented with Portland Piano International.

Johannes Brahms’ Liebeslieder Waltzes (Liebeslieder-Walzer) are distributed across two opus numbers: Op. 52 and Op. 65. The waltzes are a collection of love songs in Ländler style for SATB voices and piano four hands. The lyrics for the Liebeslieder come from Georg Friedrich Daumer’s Polydora, a collection of folk songs and love poems. While there is no concrete record indicating the exact inspiration for the Waltzes, there is speculation that Brahms’ motivation for the songs was his frustrated love for pianist Clara Schumann, composer Robert Schumann’s wife.
