The Cambridge Symphony Orchestra will present the Masterworks concert West Side Story: In Concert on Sunday, November 11, 2018 at 4:00 PM at Kresge Auditorium at MIT.

Music Director Cynthia Woods will conduct the orchestra.

The Cambridge Symphony Orchestra joins forces with dynamic soloists Carelle Flores (Maria), Javier Abreu (Tony), Stephanie Scarcella (Anita), and Ray Bauwens (Riff), and the singers of the New England Conservatory Youth Chorale (Carey Shunskis, director), to present a concert performance of West Side Story commemorating the 100th birthday of composer Leonard Bernstein.

The 1957 musical, which updates the story of Romeo and Juliet to a New York City neighborhood divided by the bitter gang rivalry between the Sharks and the Jets, will delight audiences with unforgettable tunes (“I Feel Pretty,” “America”), soaring love songs (“Maria,” “One Hand, One Heart”), and well-known instrumental dances ('Mambo,' 'Cha-Cha').

Based on a conception of Jerome Robbins Book by ARTHUR LAURENTS Music by LEONARD BERNSTEIN

Lyrics by STEPHEN SONDHEIM
Entire Original Production Directed and Choreographed by JEROME ROBBINS
