Programme comprises Wynton Marsalis' modern reinterpretation of Igor Stravinsky’s 1918 masterpiece, A Soldier's Story (L’Historie du soldat).

Told by a special guest narrator, and accompanied by principal players from Chineke! Orchestra, the story follows a talented young fiddler, Beatrice, who makes a deal with the Devil.  

A Soldier's Story features themes of temptation, artistic integrity, and the corrupting power of fame to tell a powerful parable for our starstruck times.
