Our 9th season opens with a celebration of contrasting styles, moods, and eras. Bartók’s “Contrasts,” ripe with folk dance melodies from his native Hungary and commissioned by jazz clarinetist Benny Goodman, begins the concert with a bang. Works by living composers Dobrinka Tabakova and Jenni Brandon comprise the middle of the program with two unique depictions of introspection, reflection, and calm. The evening closes with Beethoven’s Quintet for Winds and Piano, Op. 16, a seminal work in the wind chamber music repertoire.

Maestro Wardell leads your Ocala Symphony Orchestra in a season finale of awe-inspiring works. Experience the pulsing rhythms of John Adams’ Short Ride in a Fast Machine and the world premiere of Jenni Brandon’s Fin de la Tierra featuring guest soloist Jackie Glazier. The season concludes with three scenes from Tchaikovsky’s Manfred Symphony – a piece he noted was “absorbing all my time, sometimes to utter exhaustion, but an inner voice tells me that my labor is not in vain” – you will be left breathless!
