Erik Nielsen brings a dramatic flair to this Civic Orchestra concert. Works by Wagner,

Weber and Berlioz tell cautionary tales of bargains with the devil. Illinois-born

soprano Amanda Majeski has spent the last two years at the Ryan Opera Center at

Lyric Opera where notably she stepped in at short notice to sing the role of the Countess

in two performances of

The Marriage of Figaro
