Season Opener with Nathalie Stutzmann

Atlanta Symphony Hall

Immerse yourself in a captivating musical journey with the Philadelphia Orchestra's upcoming concert, "Shostakovich, Schumann, and Mazzoli," set to enchant audiences at the prestigious Verizon Hall. This exceptional performance, under the baton of the acclaimed conductor Nathalie Stutzmann and featuring the virtuosic Edgar Moreau on cello, promises an unforgettable evening of classical music.

The concert will showcase a trio of masterpieces, starting with the contemporary vibrance of Mazzoli's "Orpheus Undone," followed by Schumann's emotionally charged Cello Concerto, and culminating in Shostakovich's powerful Symphony No. 5. Each piece, a testament to the resilience and brilliance of its composer, offers a unique auditory experience that spans the spectrum of human emotion and artistic expression.

Shostakovich's Symphony No. 5, a work of profound depth and complexity, emerges as a highlight. Composed in 1937 amidst the oppressive artistic restrictions of Stalin's regime, it miraculously transcended its time, receiving an overwhelming ovation at its premiere. Schumann's Cello Concerto, on the other hand, is a poignant reflection of the composer's inner turmoil and his final burst of creative genius before his tragic decline.

This concert not only celebrates the timeless beauty of classical music but also marks a special occasion as Verizon Hall is rededicated as Marian Anderson Hall, reaffirming its status as the home of The Philadelphia Orchestra. 

Join us for this spectacular event on Friday, March 28, 2025, at 2:00 PM or Saturday, March 29, 2025, at 8:00 PM. Tickets are available as part of the 2024-25 Subscription Package, offering not just a seat to this magnificent performance but also exclusive subscriber benefits. Don't miss this opportunity to witness the convergence of musical genius and historical significance in one of the season's most anticipated concerts.
