Seattle Symphony Launches 2007-08 Season
I missed posting earlier about the opening night of the 2007-08 Seattle Symphony Season. (It must have been because I was too wrapped up in my Paris experience.)
Opening night is tonight, with a performance by cellist Yo-Yo Ma. He’s one of my favorites on my iPod play list, and it’s a shame I’m out of town for this sold-out event.
The Symphony has a lot of great performances scheduled this season, from the traditional to the concerts for young people, so whether your a classical music fan, or new to the genre, you’ll find something that all audiences will enjoy.
Here’s the lineup for the remainder of September:
- September 20th - 23rd: Sci-Fi Favorites (featuring music by John Williams) will feature a laser light show and narration by Star Trek’s Mr. Sulu, George Takei.
- September 27th - 30th: Rachmaninov Keyboard Fireworks
And October:
- October 4th - 6th: Takezawa Returns to the Symphony
- October 5th - 6th: Follow the Instrument Road (part of the Tiny Tots series to introduce little ones to music).
- October 8th - Joseph Adam Organ Recital
- October 11th - 14th: Mozart’s Requiem
- October 13th - 20th: From Soccer to the Symphony (part of the Discover Music for young people series).
- October 16th: Murray Perahia Piano Recital
- October 19th - 20th: Handel’s Water Music
- October 23rd: Sergio & Odair Assad (duo-guitar recital)
- October 25th - 28th: Awadagin Pratt Performs Mozart
You can find the full details of these performance, as well as for the balance of the season, along with ticket information,at the Seattle Symphony website.
