Bespoke Matter

Curtis Symphony Orchestra launches its 2025–26 series with a dynamic program tracing the evolution of orchestral music. The evening opens with Overture to The School for Scandal, Curtis alumnus Samuel Barber’s witty and fast-paced overture inspired by Sheridan’s 18th-century comedy. Grammy-winning conductor Christoph Eschenbach leads Krzysztof Penderecki’s Concerto Grosso for Three Cellos, featuring Curtis alumni Nicholas Canellakis, Yumi Kendall, and Christine Jeonghyoun Lee—a striking work that blends lyrical beauty with bold dissonance and rhythmic intensity.
The program culminates in Anton Bruckner’s monumental Symphony No. 3, a sweeping and heroic masterpiece that unfolds in waves of majestic brass chorales, soaring themes, and a staggering sense of scale.
Please note programs and artists are subject to change.
