鈥淲e are once again pleased to bring you the very best in symphonic music as we continue our mission of education and community outreach,鈥� said Dr. Michael Miles, Director of the Symphony Orchestra. 鈥淭his will be a wonderful season of world class guest artists, conductors and music from all over the globe!鈥�
The 2023-24 Symphony Season Series is titled 鈥淰oyages,鈥� exploring music from all around the globe to familiarize students and patrons with the many styles of music that exist in the world. From Spain and Italy to Austria and Brazil and many other stops, audiences will hear the Latin rhythms of South America, the stylish music of Spain, and the power and expression of the Austro-German symphonic tradition. Along the way patrons will hear music depicting pine forests in Rome, songs about lost love, and an opera inspired by the painting 鈥淭he Adoration of the Magi.鈥� Of course, ring in the season at our annual 鈥淗oliday Choral Spectacular!鈥�
The venerable Symphony moves to a new ticketing system in hopes of making the patron experience as simple as possible. However, this system does not allow reserved seats.
鈥淲e hope our long-time patrons will enjoy us in either their usual seats or take the opportunity to explore new views and sounds in the performance spaces,鈥� Miles added. 鈥楢ll ticketing and information will be available at our website, usm.edu/symphony.鈥�
Ticket prices will remain at $20 general admission this season so more people than ever before can afford to enjoy a night out at the Symphony. Season ticket purchasers will enjoy a discount equal to one free concert, and students are always welcome at our concerts free of admission with ID.
Miles concluded, 鈥淎s we travel the globe in search of great music, we invite you along on our journey in a season of great music.鈥�
