Echoes of Romance (with Rachmaninoff & Tchaikovsky) – March 23, 2025

Acclaimed pianist Frederick Moyer joins the Orchestra for Sergei Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 3, a masterwork of technical virtuosity and emotional depth. Moyer’s artistry and power on the piano will bring new life to this towering concerto.

The program will also present the grandeur of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky with two of his iconic works: the elegant “Polonaise” from Eugene Onegin and the enchanting “Swan Lake Suite,” which will transport listeners to the world of fairytale romance and drama.

Timeless Treasures (with Mozart, Beethoven & Schumann) – May 25, 2025

We will conclude our concert season with a special treat, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Bassoon Concerto in B-flat major, featuring David Savage, PSO’s principal bassoonist as the soloist, performing this expressive and technically demanding concerto.

The concert will also include Robert Schumann’s lovely Symphony No. 1 (also known as the “Spring”), a celebration of springtime and renewal, as well as Ludwig van Beethoven’s “Egmont Overture, Op. 84,” an intensely dramatic piece symbolizing the fight for freedom.
