Do you ever wish you could be in two places at once? Thanks to technology, classical music connoisseurs and dance devotees can experience two performances in separate Dartmouth College auditoriums at the same time. In The Petrushka Project, the Dartmouth Symphony Orchestra and the Dartmouth Dance Ensemble perform an iconic 1911 work by Igor Stravinsky from opposite ends of the Hopkins Center for the Arts. Audience members in the center’s Moore Theater watch the dance ensemble onstage and hear the orchestra via high-quality audio transmission. In Spaulding Auditorium, live video of the dancers plays on a wide screen above the orchestra. Concerts on Friday and Saturday allow folks to experience the performances from both perspectives and hear the remainder of each group’s program.
