Springfield Symphony Orchestra, Opening Night

We are excited to kick off a remarkable season on October 11 with a beautiful concert conducted by our Artistic Director, Mei-Ann Chen.
From beloved classics to bold new works, this year’s concerts will bring music to life in fresh and inspiring ways.

Mei-Ann Chen, Conductor
From Verdi’s La Forza Del Destino to the old sounds of Ancient Airs and Dances by Respighi to the monumental orchestral colors in Respighi’s Pines of Rome, to the contemporary orchestral suites by Menotti and from the popular film, Godfather, the SSO celebrates Italian composers and culture through iconic works throughout the centuries!
Each piece provides a glimpse into a different era and the vast range of colors created by the Italian masters. The audience will witness a meaningful collaboration with members from the Springfield Symphony Youth Orchestras and a unique surround sound experience at the climax of Pines of Rome!
