Home for the Holidays

Burnt Store Presbyterian Church

The Florida Philharmonic is set to dazzle audiences with a unique event this season as the orchestra performs a special arrangement of Gustav Mahler’s Symphony No. 4. This performance promises to be a remarkable interpretation of Mahler’s work adapted to bring out the nuances and intimacy of a chamber orchestra. This is a must-see event for music lovers as it offers a rare opportunity to hear a beloved symphony in a new light, promising an afternoon of profound musical exploration and enjoyment.

Heavenly Light

Join The Florida Philharmonic for an unforgettable afternoon as we celebrate the culmination of our 2nd season with this heroic lineup of classical masterpieces. Each piece tells a unique story of triumph and artistic brilliance. From the dramatic power of Mozart’s Overture to Don Giovanni, the artistry and virtuosity of concertmaster Ming Gao performing Mozart’s Third Violin Concerto, to Beethoven’s Third Symphony, Eroica, this concert is a fitting end to the season of classics, leaving you inspired and eager for more.

Heroic Finale

With a program that spans the elegant sophistication of Ravel, the timeless beauty of Mozart, and the inventive genius of Stravinsky, this concert is a celebration of the neoclassical spirit in all its forms.
