SUMMARY:Geek Trivia
DESCRIPTION:Do you have a surplus of knowledge nuggets from years of playing through various video game sagas?\nIs your mind palace filled with what some might (wrongly) deem “inconsequential” details about your favourite television shows and movies?\nIn social situations\, do you find yourself holding back from inundating those around you with facts and tidbits about the movie they’re discussing? Or worse – not holding back?\nWe can help! Join us for Geek Trivia on Monday nights where your nerdy expertise will be not only appreciated\, but celebrated!\nEach week\, Trivia Master Alex sets aside a portion of the evening to focus on a different geeky theme (you can check out upcoming themes on our website). And if a particular week’s theme isn’t your speciality\, don’t worry! There will still be a lot of randomized trivial geekiness to enjoy! The exception to this is the last Monday of every month\, when all the questions will be on a particular theme. The theme for July 28: The Office!\nBook a table for your team at levelonegamepub.com/reservations – be sure to put “Trivia” in the details section.

SUMMARY:Trans-Siberian Orchestra Ghosts of Christmas Eve
DESCRIPTION:Trans-Siberian Orchestra (TSO) is a progressive rock band founded as an outlet for the many rock operas late rock industry veteran\, producer\, composer\, and musician Paul O’Neill was writing. \nTSO was created to push the boundaries of what was possible for a band to create – both musically and visually. Paul O’Neill dreamed of a different kind of “band” that is not limited by the confines of traditional rock acts and instead established one with multiple singers who could inhabit the various characters he was writing into his rock operas. Although TSO is best known for their Capra-esque trilogy of holiday records – Christmas Eve & Other Stories\, The Christmas Attic\, and The Lost Christmas Eve – they have also released several other rock operas. Beethoven’s Last Night (2000) was the first of these non-holiday rock operas and tells a compelling tale of a battle for Beethoven’s soul between good and evil. It features  instrumental crossovers between classical composers and contemporary rock\, along with original vocal tracks featuring Patti Russo (Meatloaf) as the character Teresa\, Beethoven’s love. Later albums take on great themes such as war and redemption\, namely Night Castle (2009). Night Castle was TSO’s first Top 5 album debut and included a bonus track featuring Greg Lake (Emerson\, Lake & Palmer\, King Crimson)\, who was one of TSO’s greatest influences. \nLetters From The Labyrinth (2015) was another Top 10 release for TSO. In total\, TSO has sold in excess of 12 million albums and DVDs. \nConsistently one of the Top 25 touring acts in the country\, TSO shows no signs of slowing down. Since its touring debut in 1999\, TSO has played over 2\,000 Winter Tour shows for more than 20 million fans. So far TSO has also donated over $20 million from these tours to local charities. \nAt the time of his passing\, O’Neill had several TSO projects in various stages of completion at his recording studio in Florida. He also had two finalized rock operas: Romanov: When Kings Must Whisper\, about the 1917 Russian Revolution\, along with a live concert adaptation of Night Castle. O’Neill also planned to eventually bring the TSO experience to Broadway. Nearly 25 years after the release of their first album\, Trans-Siberian Orchestra continues to create and live on.

SUMMARY:Storgårds & Hadelich Barber\, Brahms & Bach
DESCRIPTION:Three things to know: \n\nOur Principal Guest Conductor\, John Storgårds\, leads the NAC Orchestra in works overflowing with passionate melodies and tranquil reflections.\nGrammy Award-winning violinist Augustin Hadelich returns to Southam Hall for his long-awaited NAC Orchestra debut.\nJohannes Brahms composed his pastoral Third Symphony during his summer holiday in a German spa town.\n\nWhile many American composers of the 1930s incorporated jazz into their music\, Samuel Barber remained true to the expressive language of 19th-century Romanticism in his Concerto for Solo Violin and Orchestra. Experience moments of heartfelt lyricism and pulse-racing virtuosity when Augustin Hadelich—whose performances “reveal something from a plane beyond ours” (Washington Post)—brings Barber’s beloved work to life in his NAC Orchestra debut. \nIt may have taken Johannes Brahms more than 20 years to write his First Symphony\, but his Third Symphony flowed from his pen during one tranquil summer in the German spa town of Wiesbaden. The serenity of Brahms’s surroundings is woven throughout the work—from the unbridled joy of the opening tune to its hushed final moments\, where the last of Brahms’s mesmerizing harmonies evaporates into silence. \nAnd Finnish composer Kalevi Aho pays homage to J. S. Bach by reimagining the final work the Baroque composer wrote—Contrapunctus 13 from The Art of Fugue—in a ravishing arrangement for string orchestra. \nPost-Concert Talkback\nStay after the concert for a special onstage Q&A in Southam Hall with John Storgårds\, NACO Music Director Designate\, and journalist Paul Wells.

SUMMARY:Storgårds & Hadelich Barber\, Brahms & Bach
DESCRIPTION:Three things to know: \n\nOur Principal Guest Conductor\, John Storgårds\, leads the NAC Orchestra in works overflowing with passionate melodies and tranquil reflections.\nGrammy Award-winning violinist Augustin Hadelich returns to Southam Hall for his long-awaited NAC Orchestra debut.\nJohannes Brahms composed his pastoral Third Symphony during his summer holiday in a German spa town.\n\nWhile many American composers of the 1930s incorporated jazz into their music\, Samuel Barber remained true to the expressive language of 19th-century Romanticism in his Concerto for Solo Violin and Orchestra. Experience moments of heartfelt lyricism and pulse-racing virtuosity when Augustin Hadelich—whose performances “reveal something from a plane beyond ours” (Washington Post)—brings Barber’s beloved work to life in his NAC Orchestra debut. \nIt may have taken Johannes Brahms more than 20 years to write his First Symphony\, but his Third Symphony flowed from his pen during one tranquil summer in the German spa town of Wiesbaden. The serenity of Brahms’s surroundings is woven throughout the work—from the unbridled joy of the opening tune to its hushed final moments\, where the last of Brahms’s mesmerizing harmonies evaporates into silence. \nAnd Finnish composer Kalevi Aho pays homage to J. S. Bach by reimagining the final work the Baroque composer wrote—Contrapunctus 13 from The Art of Fugue—in a ravishing arrangement for string orchestra. \nPost-Concert Talkback\nStay after the concert for a special onstage Q&A in Southam Hall with John Storgårds\, NACO Music Director Designate\, and journalist Paul Wells.
