LAUGHTER AND BLISS UNDER THE STARS...

DEVOTCHKA WITH THE COLORADO SYMPHONY

WITH SPECIAL GUEST JOSH BLUE




Red Rocks Amphitheatre

JUNE 16



A Colorado summer tradition, DeVotchKa's annual homecoming celebrates the fifth collaborative performance with your Colorado Symphony. It's an evening that's been described as "the soundtrack to a saga of epic proportions"(Westword). DeVotchKa returns once more with their trademark lush orchestrations combined with the rich, expansive sounds of the Colorado Symphony in a stunning evening at the world's premier outdoor amphitheatre.
Comedian and Coloradan, Josh Blue opens the evening to fill you with raucous laughter. Blue exploded onto the national comedy scene by capturing the attention and endearment of the country as the winner of NBC’s Last Comic Standing. His stand-up routine is in a constant state of evolution and his off-the-cuff improvisational skills guarantee that no two shows are exactly alike. Don't miss this magical evening of laughter and "total bliss".

TICKETS ON SALE THIS FRIDAY!

This concert is presented by ARROW Electronics

PARTNER MESSAGE

SWEENEY TODD




Denver Center for the Performing Arts

APR 8 - MAY 15



DeVotchKa, the Grammy-nominated, Denver hometown music heroes, take on the legendary demon barber of Fleet Street, serving up a delicious reinvention of Sondheim’s magnificent musical thriller. Hell-bent on revenge, Sweeney Todd takes up with his enterprising neighbor in a devilish plot to slice their way through London’s upper crust. Justice will be served — along with audacious humor, bloody good thrills and DeVotchKa’s lush brand of gypsy punk.

UPCOMING EVENTS

- THIS WEEKEND -

MAHLER SYMPHONY NO. 2 "RESURRECTION"




Boettcher Concert Hall

FEB 19-20



The Colorado Symphony performs Gustav Mahler's remarkable Symphony No. 2 "Resurrection," a five-movement symphony that takes listeners on a dark, solemn, and sublime journey that meditates on the themes of life, death, and rebirth. Mahler's Symphony No. 2 is the largest symphony ever made in terms of forces, length, and harmonic boldness yet is his most popular and successful work.
Don't forget to arrive early for the prelude at 6:30 pm hosted by Phillip Stevens with special guests Michael Thornton and the CU Horn Choir. Preludes are insightful discussions that take place before each Masterworks performance and are included with your concert ticket.

IGUDESMAN AND JOO




Boettcher Concert Hall

FEB 27



Nearly 40 million YouTube hits have turned the inspired lunacy of musicians Igudesman & Joo into an internet and international sensation.
Imagine the anarchy of South Park and the Marx Brothers mashed up with the musical virtuosity of pianist Lang Lang and violinist Nigel Kennedy. If Trey Parker and Matt Stone played the violin and piano, if Penn and Teller performed music instead of magic and if Seth Macfarlane had a twin, they would be the brilliantly outrageous Igudesman & Joo. Join the fun as Music Director Andrew Litton conducts this duo, with their astonishing musical and comic talents, to shred the classics using pop culture, comedy, slapstick, and music!
