Symphony #9
During our 27th season, we conclude our celebration of the birth of Felix Mendelssohn, and add commemorations of the births of Frederic Chopin and Robert Schumann. Symphony Pro Musica will also perform music from Gustav Holst’s recognizable and much-loved Planets, paired with themes from Strauss’s Also Sprach Zarathustra. Piano prodigy George Li joins the orchestra once again, and soprano Sara Jakubiak makes her SPM debut.
