- Sep 267:30 PMOrpheus Chamber Orchestra with pianist Garrick Ohlsson (Classical)It's one thing for four players in a string quartet to lean in to the group sound and react spontaneously, but with 20 to 30 musicians together, the complexities and payoffs are magnified exponentially. Orpheus Chamber Orchestra's catalog of recordings for Deutsche Grammophon, Nonesuch and other labels has grown to include more than 70 albums that stand as benchmarks of the chamber orchestra repertoire, including Haydn symphonies, Mozart concertos and 20th-century gems by Stravinsky, Schoenberg, Ravel and Bartók. Orpheus's performance will include Garrick Ohlsson, a trusted Mozart partner who has been hailed for his "muscular technique and the sensitivity and restraint with which he deploys it" by The New York Times, and Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 9 (Jeunehomme). While Mozart melded styles from near and far to redefine the concerto genre, Brahms mined Handel (and Bach and Beethoven) to craft what he later called his "favorite work," the Variations and Fugue on a Theme by Handel, Op. 24, another piece to be performed. Composer and six-time Grammy-winner Billy Childs infuses classical traditions with his jazz roots in a new work for Orpheus.

- Oct 87:00 PMMachine de Cirque-Ghost Light: Between Fall and Flight (Contemporary Cirque)Ghost Light: BetweenFall and Flight takes a deep look into the synergy of two highly skilled performers, while the teeterboard propels them toward each other in the euphoria of flight, accompanied by the levity of weightlessness and the fatality of the inevitable fall. A reflection of the journey of a partnership, Ghost Light features a blend of breathtaking acrobatic feats, poignant choreography and a saturated lighting design. One-hour in length, Ghost Light premiered in fall 2020 in France. It had its North American premiere at Tohu in Montreal in November 2021. Boasting performers from Cirque du Soleil, Cirque Éloize and Les 7 Doigts, Machine de Cirque was created by juggler/acrobats Raphaël Dubé and Yohann Trépanier, along with percussionist Fred Lebrasseur, under the artistic direction of Vincent Dubé.
