Celestial Illuminations featuring The Planets
Thursday, October 23, 2025 at 8pm
Pre-Concert Reception
Experience The Planets, the astrological romp that turned Gustav Holst into a rock star. The off-world orchestral suite spawned rock-and-roll remakes by bands such as Led Zeppelin and King Crimson. The one planet that didn't make the cut in Holst’s score—Earth—gets its due when the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra does a mashup with Hindustani violinist Kala Ramnath. Her scintillating, genre-bending evocation of the ancient elements of space, air, water, fire, and earth comes to life with composer Reena Esmail.
America @ 250: Copland + Barber
Thursday, January 29, 2025 at 8pm
Post-Concert Reception
Guest conductor Leonard Slatkin brings his "special flare for Americana" (The New York Times) to serve up two great American works from the past century. The young violin virtuoso Randall Goosby plays Samuel Barber's uber-romantic Violin Concerto. Then the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra pulls out all the stops for Aaron Copland's gripping Third Symphony, a piece that guarantees the goosebumps with its finale, Fanfare for the Common Man.

Five-time GRAMMY Award-winning Nicaraguan conductor Giancarlo Guerrero leads the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra in a south-of-the-border immersion, packing plenty of heat into a fusion of Afro-Caribbean, Central and South American traditions, including the tango-infused Sinfonía Buenos Aires. The renowned Venezuelan soloist Pacho Flores dips into Mexico's rich trumpet-playing tradition for a piece written by him and for him by Arturo Márquez.
Mozart's Jupiter Symphony
Friday, May 15, 2025 at 8pm
Post-Concert Reception
Mozart's Jupiter Symphony, the capstone of his symphonic journey, soars into the heavens, exuding such grandeur and cheery nobility that someone named it after the king of the gods. Russian violinist Alina Ibragimova turns her fiery bow on Mozart's "Turkish" Concerto, so named for the composer's take on Turkish melodies. "Ibragimova has technique to burn," wrote Audiophilia. Guest conductor Jörg Widmann offers a lively opener with his own composition Con brio, "with spirit."
