Hailed as a once-in-a-generation singer of astonishing vocal beauty and dramatic power, soprano Leah Hawkins headlines Strauss Ecstasy, a concert of operatic and orchestral splendor that simply must be experienced to be believed. Nothing compares to the soaring melodic lines and sumptuously opulent harmonies of Richard Strauss at his operatic best. Audience members will be enthralled by some of the most beloved moments from Der Rosenkavalier, riveted by the astonishingly celestial magic of Ariadne auf Naxos, and be completely transported by the incomparable Four Last Songs.
