鈥淲e are thrilled to be completely back and offering a full season of wonderful, diverse programming,鈥� said Dr. Michael Miles, Director of the Symphony Orchestra. 鈥淔rom Beethoven to Broadway and holiday classics to the Verdi Requiem, this truly is a wonderful season for the symphony.鈥�
This year鈥檚 season is entitled, Classics! The Symphony takes the liberty of defining 鈥渃lassics鈥� as 鈥渨orks that are familiar or of lasting worth with a timeless quality.鈥� With programming including familiar 鈥渃lassics鈥� like Beethoven鈥檚 Symphony No. 5, and Stravinsky鈥檚 Firebird Suite, audiences will also hear Prokofiev鈥檚 鈥�Classical鈥� Symphony the massive Requiem Mass by Verdi. Programs will feature a multitude of talented School of Music faculty and students in concertos that will have a familiar ring to many of their themes.
Possibly the most classic of all musicals, Guys and Dolls, takes to the Mannoni Performing SWAG视频 Center stage November 10-12. Considered by many as the perfect musical comedy, Guys and Dolls will delight audiences with its familiar and 鈥渃lassic鈥� collection of songs with a unique staging vision by director, Mike Lopinto.
While the Symphony Orchestra has a strong educational mission for its talented students, they also value the strong community engagement they have enjoyed for many years. They recognize extraordinary economic impact that faces all their community and patrons and have made the bold decision to reduce the cost of tickets for the 2022-23 season.
Individual tickets will be reduced to $20 for Platinum members and $15 for Gold members. And as always, all students attend Symphony concerts free of charge.
鈥淲e hope this price reduction will allow anyone who wants to attend our Symphony Orchestra concerts to do so without economic hardship,鈥� said Miles. 鈥淲e very much appreciate everyone who spends their time and money supporting our Symphony Orchestra, and we are pleased to continue to bring to our community the very best in orchestral enlightenment and entertainment.鈥�
