Alexander Platt, the Symphonia's principal conductor from 2006-2009, rejoins us to present Grammy Award-winning guitar sensation Jason Vieaux in a performance of Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranguez. The concert opens with Faure’s Masques et Bergamasques, and it will close with Bizet's popular Symphony in C.

Grammy-nominated violinist and conductor Andrés Cárdenes' first appearance with the Symphonia is a dazzling, sensuous, all-strings program. Two sizzling, virtuosic Italian works by Rossini and Vivaldi will open the concert, which will conclude with Mahler's dark, brooding, and driven arrangement of Schubert’s Quartet in D Minor ("Death and the Maiden").

Spring is in the air, and Laura Jackson leads the orchestra in a thrilling concert of works by Adolphe, Britten, and Beethoven, featuring piano soloist Marika Bournaki.

Maestro Alastair Willis will be back on the podium, and he is joined on stage by flute soloist Les Roettges for a program filled with mystery and haunting beauty. The concert also features a glorious flute concerto by the “the French Mozart,” Francois Devienne, Mendelssohn’s evocative Hebrides Overture ("Fingal’s Cave"), and Manuel de Falla’s suite from his sensuous ballet El Amor Brujo. What a way to cap the season!
