Beethoven’s EroicaJune 5 & 6 (8 pm), 2020Wagner Overture to Rienzi | Shostakovich Cello Concerto No. 1 | Beethoven Symphony No. 3, “Eroica” | Mark Kosower cello | Neal Gittleman conductorBeethoven originally dedicated his 3rd symphony to Napoleon Bonaparte . . . until Napoleon declared himself emperor.

The mind-blowing Turangalîla Symphony is ecstatic, otherworldly, and completely original. A devout and steadfast faith inspired all of Messiaen’s music. Turangalîla is a vast, beautiful, cinematic canvas dedicated to love, life, joy, death, and eternity. "I am convinced that joy exists," Messiaen once said, "convinced that the invisible exists more than the visible, and that joy is beyond sorrow, and beauty is beyond horror."

Signature Events are those that combine the power of all three art forms. Special Events are those that are usually purchased apart from packaged series. We look forward to seeing you in the hall for these breathtaking experiences.
