September 23, 2023 | Petersen Plays Grieg
Exciting young charismatic pianist, Drew Petersen, returns to perform Edvard Grieg’s gorgeous piano concerto. Petersen performed with the THSO on short notice in May 2021 and wowed audiences with his impeccable charm and phenomenal musicality. The evening opens with Florence Price’s bluesy, toe-tapping Juba Dance and concludes with the beautiful and lush melodies of Sibelius’ Symphony No. 2.
November 4, 2023 | 1812 Overture LIVE!
When was the last time you heard the entire 1812 Overture by Tchaikovsky? We all love the familiar ending complete with cannon shots, but this is your chance to come hear the complete work LIVE! The THSO will also feature Principal Oboist Rebecca McGuire performing Eric Ewazen’s stunningly beautiful concerto titled Down a River of Time. McGuire’s performance will be dedicated to Dr. Stephen Gage, a THSO Board Member and ISU School of Music professor who passed away in February 2023. In addition, the THSO will play two of Richard Strauss’ famous tone poems, Don Juan and Death & Transfiguration.
