Leoncavallo Prologue and Intermezzo from Pagliacci

Berlioz Symphonie fantastìque (Movements 4 & 5)

Join the Junior RBC Symphony for a magical night, and step into a world of vivid storytelling and orchestral drama.

Ruggero Leoncavallo’s Prologue and Intermezzo from Pagliacci opens up, rich with operatic emotion and theatrical flair.

Paul Dukas’s The Sorcerer’s Apprentice follows - a sparkling, whimsical tone poem full of color and mischief, famously brought to life by Disney’s Fantasia.

Finally, Hector Berlioz’s groundbreaking Symphonie fantastique pays hommage to this year's French season at RBC. It builds a feverish musical journey through love, obsession, and hallucination, showcasing the full power and imagination of one of the greatest musicians of the 19th century.
