Season Concerts
Longmont Symphony Orchestra is proud to present “Unity in Sound”, celebrating the moving works of Mozart, Brahms, Beach, Strauss, and more. Led by Music Director, Elliot Moore, this season aims to unite us all through the immense power of music.

Kodály & Brahms
Featuring Anna Shelest, Piano | We kick off our 59th season with Kodály’s brilliant orchestral work, Dances of Galánta, a piece that links the musical cultures of Western and Eastern Europe. Influenced by Rachmaninoff, Liszt, and Tchaikovsky, the Ukrainian composer Sergei Bortkiewicz composed this lush and deeply emotional Piano Concerto No. 1 in 1912; Ukrainian Pianist Anna Shelest joins the Longmont Symphony to bring this rarely performed gem to the Front Range. And the LSO performs Brahms’s most popular symphony to round out this program of cultural connections.
Join us for the Pre-Concert talk at 6pm! More information coming soon.

Prokofiev & Brahms
Featuring Sharon Roffman, Violin | Sharon Roffman makes her return to Longmont to perform Brahms’s beloved Violin Concerto. And your Longmont Symphony performs one of Prokofiev’s most enduring works, Symphony No. 5. Composed in 1944 as Russian troops were advancing on Nazi forces, this symphony expresses heroism, tragedy, and the resilience of the human spirit.

Strauss & Mozart
Featuring Clancy Newman, Cello | Clancy Newman is back with the Longmont Symphony to continue exploring the cello repertoire in all its glory. In Strauss’s 45-minute tone poem, the solo cello represents the Don — a self-proclaimed (and not so sound of mind!) knight errant who believes windmills are giants and sheep are an invading army. Also on the program is Tchaikovsky’s Variations for Cello and Orchestra “on a Rococo Theme,” paired with a symphony by Tchaikovsky’s favorite composer, Mozart.
Join us for the Pre-Concert Talk at 6pm! More information coming soon.

He will join Maestro Moore for a pre-concert talk at 6:00 PM. The concert also includes mezzo-soprano Abigail Nims performing Amy Beach’s "Wandering Clouds." Additionally, Vaughan Williams's stunning and spiritual blend of ancient and modern elements is showcased in "Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis," which features two string orchestras. Finally, Respighi’s "Pines of Rome" promises to be a sonic spectacle not to be missed!
