Music Inspired by Shakespeare

William Shakespeare’s plays are the source of inspiration for this concert. American composer, David Diamond, and Russian composer, Dimitri Shostakovich, wrote incidental music to two of the bard’s most well-known tragedies. Two actors who have performed with the Stratford Festival will reenact scenes from both tragedies, reminding us of the power of Shakespeare’s words.
