SUMMARY:Shelley conducts The Rite of Spring
DESCRIPTION:This NACO Mentorship program is made possible in part through the generous support of the Friends of the NAC Orchestra. \n—– \n\nExperience an evening of music that celebrates the joyful eruptions of spring and the warm serenity of the desert. \nElemental\, primordial\, dissonant\, pagan: words that describe Igor Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring making it a deliciously shocking and essential musical experience! \nJohn Luther Adams’s ethereal Become Desert completes a musical trilogy he never intended to write.\n\nThis is a night for mysteries and magic\, as Alexander Shelley leads the NAC Orchestra and participants of the NACO Mentorship Program through some of the classical world’s most otherworldly music from both traditional and contemporary composers.  \nBecome Desert\, by Pulitzer Prize-winning composer John Luther Adams\, is a sensory experience that will conjure the sprawling\, shimmering beauty of a vast sea of sand. The warm sun rises\, its tone and intensity changes throughout the day\, and desert life comes and goes. The music evokes the movement of a beautiful but unforgiving landscape.  \nFor years\, the narrative about the riot caused by the premiere of Igor Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring in 1913 Paris was that the whirling dervish of music and choreography drove audience members to lose their minds. It’s almost a shame it’s not true. But make no mistake: Rite of Spring creates a cathartic\, unruly\, and beautiful musical world that will viscerally pull you in and keep you spinning long after the final note.

The event was headlined by Canadian born superstar\, Grammy-award winning DJ and producer Deadmau5. In 2011\, Escapade Music Festival came even stronger with an artist that had never performed in Ottawa and that is known as the biggest DJ in the world.

The event attendance almost doubled in size since its first year inception with a crowd of almost five thousand (5\,000) people. With the increasing demand for this type of music and event in the NCR\, DNA Presents moved to the Ottawa Stadium for its 2012 edition. With the likes of Avicii\, Afrojack\, Eric Prydz and more\, 2012 saw the festival grow to 15\,000 attendees. With no slowing down in sight\, 2013 saw Escapade Music Festival grow to over 20\,000 attendees over 2 days at the RA Centre. Our 5th anniversary in 2014 saw us hit a record attendance of 28\,000 attendees at our newest home\, The Rideau Carleton Raceway.
