Let’s go to the movies! The Springfield Symphony serves up a big bucket of hot buttered popcorn in this evening of Hollywood favorites. Join us for a night of movie soundtracks from the most-beloved classics of the silver screen like the Wizard of Oz, Doctor Zhivago, and South Pacific. 

The Austrians and Germans have elevated comfort food to an art. Schnitzel is somehow both homey and fancy at the same time, and Strudel is basically apple pie dressed up for an evening of waltzing. The music we play tonight will be the same—familiar and comforting while also hauntingly elegant and beautiful. 

Gingerbread, sugar plums, peppermint bark, fudge, peanut brittle…there are so many wonderful treats on the cookie tray this time of year! Take part in an evening filled with holiday songs and warm cheer, just like a big platter of delicious Christmas cookies waiting for Santa. 

The year 2020 marks the 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth, so we are celebrating him with an all-Beethoven concert. We will perform Beethoven’s Egmont Overture and are thrilled to perform his beautiful and beloved Symphony No. 7. Join us for the party!
