Upcoming 2019-2020 Season Concerts:
-
September 13 & 15, 2019 — Brahm's First Symphony - Robert Henry, piano: Full of sublime melodies, glorious harmonies and an impassioned urgency that would become his orchestral trademark, Brahms' First Symphony was so monumental it's sometimes referred to "Beethoven's Tenth." Discovered in an abandoned Chicago home in 2009, Florence Price's once-lost Second Violin Concerto stands among the best American violin concertos
-
November 22 & 24, 2019 — Scheherezade and Other Epic Odysseys -
Three epic odysseys, one epic program! Rimsky-Korsakov's fantastical Scheherezade brings Arabian Nights to life with dazzling effects and brilliant displays of virtuosity from around the orchestra. The ride begins with Portland-based composer - and PCSO member - Nicole Buetti, whose fun and energetic music gives even the most thrilling film scores a run for their money. -
March 13 & 15, 2020 — A Concert for Hope -
Join us in the fight against cancer, as world-renowned trumpeter and survivor Ryan Anthony, representing his CancerBlows foundation, performs Jim Stephenson's Concerto for Hope, written especially for him.
