**And here are some of my absolute favourites,** just a **tiny taste** of the wonders awaiting:

• **Debussy's L'Après-midi d'un Faune**: Such **exquisite** **dreamlike** music. Debussy’s mastery of the **mood**, **texture**, and **colour** creates an atmosphere that is **breathtakingly ethereal** - and **pure magic** to watch.
• **Stravinsky's Rite of Spring**: This ballet was so **controversial** when it **premiered**, my dears! You’ll just have to see for yourselves to **feel the primal force** of its **rhythms**. Just listen for a few bars and you'll be caught up in the **power of this stunning composition.**
• **Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet**: It's a timeless story told with **such passion**, and **every movement**, **every emotion**, **every gesture** is brought to life with **the brilliance** of Prokofiev's **score**.

**Don't miss it, darlings. Take your chance to experience this magical world for yourselves. **

So, **let the music carry you away**, to worlds of **imagination and wonder**, of **heartfelt emotions** and **beautiful artistry**. There's a **world** of **beauty and delight** waiting just beyond the **curtain**. I just know you'll **fall head over heels**.
