The UNCG Symphony Orchestra opens its season with a program of orchestral masterworks from the American and European traditions. The concert features Copland’s vibrant “Hoe-Down” from “Rodeo,” Gershwin’s iconic “Rhapsody in Blue” with faculty pianist Alessandra Feris, and Brahms’ monumental Symphony No. 1, a cornerstone of the symphonic repertoire.
The Nutcracker Suite: Symphony Orchestra and Jazz Ensemble I
Celebrate the season with the Symphony Orchestra, Jazz Ensemble I, and soprano soloists Janinah Burnett and Michaela Kelly in a festive holiday concert. Hear Tchaikovsky’s beloved music from “The Nutcracker” alongside the swinging jazz interpretations of Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn. Additional works by Bizet and Strauss round out the program, creating an evening filled with warmth, seasonal spirit, and soulful energy.
Faculty, Students, and Friends Chamber Recital
Join us for an evening of chamber music presented by UNCG faculty, students, and friends. The program features Claude Debussy’s Piano Trio in G minor, an elegant early work, alongside Felix Mendelssohn’s String Octet in E-flat Major, op. 20, a celebrated cornerstone of the chamber repertoire.
