Welcome to our 2025-2026 Season!
This season, we are featuring works ʺBy Air, By Land, and By Sea!ʺ Each concert features pieces from an air, land, and sea theme.
Representing the air we have works like Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite, and several pieces portraying space, including Holst’s The Planets and Mozart’s Symphony No. 41, ʺJupiter.ʺ
Our land-themed selections include popular film music such as Jurassic Park, pieces inspired by battles like Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture, and Grofeʹs Grand Canyon Suite, depicting one of the world’s great landmarks.
From the sea, we’ll play water-inspired works such as Dvorak’s The Water Goblin, Bennett’s Victory at Sea, and Hovhanessʹ work And God Created Great Whales.
We’ll have new and returning special guests! Adam Zukiewicz again joins us on the piano for Mozart’s Piano Concerto K. 491, and we’re also welcoming back Loveland High School Choirs for our December concert. In March, we’ll be featuring Jubal Fulks on the violin for the Sibelius Violin Concerto. Our season will end with a performance by the winner of the 2026 Young Artist Concerto Competition!
We look forward to seeing you!
New Riser Fundraiser
We reached our goal to raise $12,000 for new risers! With these funds, we will be able to purchase a brand new set of risers, a set of stairs, and a guardrail for the platforms in the back. We plan to put these risers into use next season!
A big thank you to everyone that donated!
A generous donor will contribute an extra $5000 to the orchestra since we reached our goal by January 30th! Thank you!
