Dance of the Seven Veils and Haydn's Nelson Mass & Spotlight on Movies

Share Tweet Email

August 20, 2016:  Intermountain Classics presents the music of Richard Strauss and Franz Joesph Haydn, as well as some very interesting and exciting excerpts from movie soundtracks!  The Nelson Mass is an oratorio by Haydn which describes Nelson’s sea battle with Napoleon in the Battle of the Nile, and Strauss’  ‘Dance of the Seven Veils’ is the very seductive dance from his opera Salome.  Also included is music from three recent movies, ‘Paradise Road’, ‘The Stonehearst Asylum’ and ‘Suffragette’.    Paradise Road describes the amazing survival story of 400 women and children being held captive in a Japanese internment camp on Sumatra during World War II, The Stonehearst Asylum is the retelling of a gripping short story by Edgar Allan Poe called The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether, and Suffragette tells of the struggles and eventual victories of the women suffrage soldiers in Great Britain in the early days of the feminist movement.
