Cape Cod Chamber Orchestra's Ghost Hunters

Cape Cod Chamber Orchestra's Ghost Hunters

Presented by Cape Cod Chamber Orchestra at Pilgrim Congregational Church

CCCO’s fourth season opens coincidentally just as the Cape is approaching Halloween and the holiday’s local celebrations. Ghost Hunters conjures up spooky Cape Cod folk lore in a program of ghost stories and compelling chamber music.  Peer through the keyhole into the story of Liza Tower Hill, otherwise known as the “Witch of Barnstable”, said to have danced on Mary Dunn Pond nightly with a crew of otherworldly creatures.

Composer Franz Joseph Haydn leads the hunt as the audience engages in the search for the notorious Barnstable witch in his famous Symphony No. 73 “The Hunt”. Ralph Vaughan Williams’ Death of Tintagiles tells the gloomy tale of a queen who captures a family, leaving others to attempt their rescue. The Orchestra’s performance concludes with Béla Bartók’s Divertimento for Strings, written in 1939 as Europe postured for the dark times that loomed before World War II.

Both the Chatham and Harwich Port performances will feature a costume contest for audience members during intermission, with winners chosen by the orchestra members. For more information about prizes and how to enter, please email info@capecodchamberorchestra.org.
