Step into the engrossing world of Stravinsky’s The Soldier’s Tale — a Faustian fable about a soldier-fiddler who makes a pact with the devil — in this semi-staged collaboration with The Goodman featuring ragtime rhythms and freewheeling violin solos. The all-Stravinsky program also includes his exquisite Septet and his neoclassical Octet, each highlighting the string and wind players of the CSO respectively.

Stravinsky’s The Soldier’s Tale is produced in association with Goodman Theatre.
