Of Planets and Stars Far, Far Away Monday, October 5, 2026 Two beloved orchestral epics collide in one unforgettable evening. Gustav Holst's The Planets takes you on a sweeping journey through the cosmos, from the thunder of Mars to the serenity of Neptune. John Williams' iconic Star Wars selections transport you to a galaxy far, far away. Equal parts cinematic and celestial, this season opener proves that some of the greatest adventures in music happen right here at home. Sea, Land, and Victory Tuesday, November 17, 2026 A program rooted in storm, sea, and homeland. Wagner's Flying Dutchman Overture sets the stage with thunderous drama, while Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 5 delivers one of the most triumphant musical journeys ever written. At the heart of the evening: the world premiere of Elizabeth Kelly's Coastal Concerto , composed especially for CSG and inspired by the ecology of the Golden Isles, featuring tuba soloist James Jenkins in a role rarely given center stage. Seasons of Sound: From Mozart to Glass Monday, February 15, 2027 Two centuries of musical innovation, one extraordinary night. Mozart's Symphony No. 41 shares the program with Philip Glass's hypnotic Violin Concerto No. 2, "The American Four Seasons," featuring acclaimed violinist Yevgeny Kutik. From classical elegance to minimalist brilliance, this concert is a study in contrast, and a showcase of just how far the symphony can take you. Beethoven Symphony No. 9 Monday, April 12, 2027 The symphony that changed music forever. Beethoven's Ninth stands as one of humanity's greatest artistic achievements. Composed when Beethoven was completely deaf, it remains a testament to the power of the human spirit. CSG closes its season with the work that closes every great season: a celebration of joy, unity, and the music that brings us all together.
