Various– Potsdam
As part of America’s 250th, this program looks at the role music played in one of the most tumultuous times in the history of the world. At 1945’s Potsdam Conference, works by Tchaikovsky, Chopin, Kreisler, and others were one of the only things that united the assembled Allies–represented by President Harry Truman, Winston Churchill, and Joseph Stalin. In this new production, “Potsdam” will incorporate storytelling to show just how powerful music can be.
