Dance meets Gothic and the pipe organ stars. The Seattle Symphony ushers in 2025 with Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony, its every measure brimming with the kinetic energy and impetus of dance rhythms. The mighty Watjen Concert Organ stars in the Gothic brilliance of Francis Poulenc’s Organ Concerto, performed by acclaimed organist Paul Jacobs. And we visit Poulenc’s wickedly funny ballet The House Party — a delightful musical depiction of risqué flirting that made his name as well as causing a minor scandal in 1920s Paris. A dance, a party and an organ fanfare — what better way to start the new year?
