About

Join the ASO at Spivey Hall at Clayton State University!

Journey with the ASO on a tour of Europe as they perform Mendelssohn’s zesty Italian Symphony, a piece evoking sun-drenched hills and feasting al fresco inspired by the 22-year-old composer’s grand tour of Europe. A Haydn symphony opens the concert, a piece inspired by a trip to London. The “father of the symphony” spent his happiest days there, basking in celebrity and even finding romance. Haydn’s London Symphony mingles grandeur and rustic verve. Guest conductor Earl Lee makes his Atlanta Symphony Orchestra debut. Also on the program, principal oboist Elizabeth Tiscione rolls out the artistry in Françaix’s The Flower Clock, a picturesque oboe concerto evoking brightly-hued flowers that bloom according to the time of day.

Georgia native Roderick Cox (@roderickcoxconductor) made a lasting impression last year when he stepped in to conduct the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra—so much so that we knew that we had to have him back! ArtsATL (@artsatlanta) wrote that he had a “remarkably dynamic and daring presence onstage,” and that he delivered a “season high.” Read the full review in the link in our bio. Don't miss what will undoubtedly be a memorable program with him on Oct. 24 and 26, featuring Barber's Adagio for Strings, Rachmaninoff's Symphonic Dances, and music from John Adams' opera Doctor Atomic, that tells the haunting story of Oppenheimer's nuclear testing. #atlantasymphonyorchestra #orchestra #barber #adams #rachmaninoff #ticketsonsale
