Hi  --
 
The Annapolis Symphony Orchestra will be performing two beautiful evenings of music on Friday and Saturday, September 29th and 30th at Maryland Hall in Annapolis. And student tickets are only $10. 

But for the music lover, a Season Subscription makes sense. Lower cost tickets, fee-free, early notice, discounts on other performances and your same seat! Join the ASO for music that will move you! 
 
On September 29th and 30th, the Annapolis Symphony Orchestra opens their 62nd Season with Masterworks I: Music to Remember at Maryland Hall. 

The performance opens with composer Carlos Simon’s “This Land: “Towards a More Perfect Union.” It was inspired by the poetry of Jewish-Russian poet Anna Lazarus, a passionate immigration activist. Heralded as a lush and bright piece that incorporates the national anthems of immigrants to America, the music represents hope and unity. Simon is composer-in-residence at the Kennedy Center for the Arts and Assistant Professor at the College of Performing Arts at Georgetown University. 
 

Grieg’s Piano Concerto is the only concerto Grieg completed and remains one of the most popular of the genre. Gabriela Montero will perform as solo pianist. Born in Venezuela, Montero started her piano studies at age four, making her concerto debut at age eight in her hometown of Caracas. She is winner of the 4th International Beethoven Award, an Honorary Consul for Amnesty International in 2015 and was recognized for Outstanding Work in the Field of Human Rights by the Human Rights Foundation. She has spoken and performed twice at the World Economic Forum in Davos, was awarded the 2012 Rockefeller Award for her contribution to the arts,  and was a featured performer at Barack Obama’s 2008 Presidential Inauguration.

The ASO will also present the United States première of Boris Pigovat’s “Holocaust Requiem,” in memory of the Babyn Yar massacre perpetrated by Nazi forces in Kyiv, Ukraine which occurred in 1941. Peter Minkler of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra will be the featured viola soloist.

We are so fortunate to have world-class, professional musicians in our midst. I hope I will see you at one of these performances!

Enjoy!

All the best!

COMING SOON!
