Romeo and Juliet vs. West Side Story


Join us on Sunday, November 19 for a very special concert by the Antwerp Symphony Orchestra.

Shakespeare’s star-crossed lovers have inspired some truly glorious music. Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet captures the passion of Shakespeare’s timeless tragedy about warring families with music at once tender, virile, and heart-breaking — filled with the ardor of the doomed young lovers. Not only does it contain much of the composer’s finest and most instantly appealing music, it is also considered one of the most exceptional musical realizations of Shakespeare. Next, Bernstein’s West Side Story brings the feud between the Montagues and Capulets to rival Puerto Rican and white gangs in New York.
With the Antwerp Symphony Orchestra under the baton of promising Chinese conductor Elim Chan.


The Antwerp Symphony Orchestra is resident at the new Queen Elisabeth Hall, next to the Antwerp Zoo and the Centraal Station. The orchestra has chosen an American theme for its 2018-19 season, including the music of Bernstein, Sousa, Pixar soundtracks, etc.

The price includes the best seats in the house, a program booklet and a glass of bubbly in their exclusive business lounge.

Please note that this event is limited to 20 participants, so please sign up quickly.
