Home Alone 2: Lost in New York

Denver Performing Arts Complex

Don’t miss an exclusive opportunity to hear a rare choral gem – Felix Mendelssohn’s Lobgesang – which uses vocal soloists and Psalm texts in an exultant hymn of praise. This masterpiece, from the composer who reintroduced the world to the works of Johann Sebastian Bach, is at once steeped in the glory of church music and oozes with Mendelssohn’s signature Romantic voice. It all comes to life in the hands of conductor Rune Bergmann, whose towering persona and effervescent smile are already becoming familiar to Denver audiences.

A storied holiday classic returns with a freshly enriched design to experience the beloved masterpiece, Messiah. This innovative presentation is newly organized to present the narrative clearly while still maintaining the great musical traditions of this noble work. A Chamber Chorus of the Colorado Symphony Chorus will join the soloists on stage to bring more immediacy to the narrative while the full forces of the Symphony Chorus continue to thrill with their exciting and exacting choral sound, presenting Handel’s masterpiece in an enhanced dramatic context that this story-telling composer would have appreciated.

Handel's Messiah – Awakening

Mozart & Now reimagines the concert weekend experience with three unique performances contrasting the music of Mozart alongside contemporary works by some of today’s brightest composers. From Friday to Saturday, hear three of Mozart’s most revered compositions including the scintillating Symphony No. 35, his “Gran partita” Serenade featuring the entire woodwind section, and the “Coronation” Mass alongside modern works by Joel Thompson, Vivian Fung, and Gabriela Lena Frank.

Mozart and Now

Your Colorado Symphony and Chorus present an evocative program uniting music born from the shadows of war, offering a journey through conflict, grief, and the search for peace. Two movements from Handel’s Messiah set the stage with a searing portrayal of nations at war. Haydn’s Mass in Time of War continues the narrative, its solemn prayers for peace interrupted by martial rhythms that reflect the looming threat of Napoleon’s armies. Missy Mazzoli’s These Worlds in Us – a haunting orchestral work inspired by her father’s service in Vietnam – intertwines grief and resilience, merging vulnerability with militaristic energy. Vaughan Williams’ Dona Nobis Pacem closes the program with an urgent cry for peace, drawing on sacred texts and Walt Whitman’s poetry, while offering a vision of hope. Through these works, the Colorado Symphony and Chorus remind us that even in humanity’s darkest hours, the struggle to find harmony is urgent and eternal.

War and Peace: Haydn, Vaughan Williams, and Mazzoli

Music Director Peter Oundjian, the Colorado Symphony Chorus, a pair of incredible vocal soloists, and your very own Colorado Symphony join forces for an unforgettable sendoff to our concert season with Mahler’s colossal “Resurrection” symphony. This titanic work deals with nothing less than the meaning of life, as Mahler confronts an existential quest for understanding amid the challenges and incomprehensibilities we all experience. A gripping, emotional work of striking brilliance, Mahler’s passionate, stylish, and explosive symphonic journey concludes with an expression of hope and optimism that will leave you awestruck.
