Celebrating the 150th birth year of Arnold Schoenberg, the Israeli Chamber Project ensemble presents a semi-staged production of his expressionist cabaret Pierrot Lunaire with soprano Hila Baggio as the sad clown. Stravinsky’s Petrushka and Ravel’s La Valse complete the exploration of early 20th-century masterworks.

Two Clowns: Pierrot Meets Petrushka, presented by the Vancouver Recital Society, is at the Vancouver Playhouse this Sunday, Dec. 1, 3 p.m. For tickets, visit vanrecital.com or call 604-602-0363.
