THE DEVIL WEARS BROOKS BROTHERS
Sunday: For its season opener, the Bakken Trio, newly ensconced at the MacPhail Center for Music, presents a ripped-from-the-headlines take on Stravinsky's pivotal "A Soldier's Tale," in which a homeward-bound soldier (vintage 1918) trades his violin to the devil for a promise of wealth. Actor Steve Epp has updated C-F Ramuz's original text -- itself an updating of a Russian folktale with Faustian overtones -- for the Bernie Madoff era; violinist Stephanie Arado, left, who begins the concert with unaccompanied Bach, anchors an ensemble of seven Minnesota Orchestra musicians. (4 p.m. today. $15-$25. MacPhail Center for Music, 501 S. 2nd St., Mpls. 612-374-3175. www.bakkentrio.org.)
