We begin the journey in Russia (with concerts on March 4-5), then we pass through Spain (with concerts March 10-12) and end the tour in Scandinavia (on March 18). There is nothing like the experience of a full symphony orchestra performing live, especially when we can explore the greatest music from all corners of the globe. Concerts in March also include special recognition of the young talent in our community. On March 11-12, the prestigious Honor Orchestra of America, led by Larry Livingston, performs on our stage (see page 29 for information), and the ISO’s annual Side-by-Side concert features 50 talented high school musicians on stage with their professional counterparts for a spectacular evening of music on March 16. Tickets to Side by Side are only $10 – come out and show your support of the ISO and our young musicians. For those of you who subscribe to ISO concerts, I hope you’ve renewed your subscription to our recently-announced 2016-2017 season! If you are not a subscriber yet, please consider joining us on a regular basis and take advantage of the great benefits, including pre-sale opportunities to IPL Yuletide Celebration and special events. For our Lilly Classical Series next year, Maestro Urbański has programmed another exciting mid-winter festival, “Music of the Earth”, masterworks by Stravinsky, Beethoven and Mahler, and a celebratory conclusion to the season with Carmina Burana. Principal Pops Conductor Jack Everly and his team have filled the 2016-2017 Printing Partners Pops Series with the world premiere of “Classical Harmonies: The ISO and the Doo Wop Project,” and a special presentation of Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark: Film + Orchestra.
