2024-2025 Season Announced
Season Highlights
The season opens with…
The Season Finale! The “Ode to Joy” speaks to our wish to all get along with our fellow humans. The tune turns up everywhere, but it is best heard the way genius Beethoven imagined but never heard himself due to his tragic deafness. Beethoven’s greatest work has inspired countless others including our own Music Director/Conductor Diane Wittry to compose her own “Ode to Joy” Fanfare and for the Allentown Symphony to commission a world premiere by rising star composer Joe Jaxson. Plus hear Florence Price’s tender Andante Cantabile for string orchestra, and Adolphus Hailstork’s Fanfare on “Amazing Grace.”
Breathtaking Big Screen Experience! This fall, the Metropolitan Opera’s award-winning Live in HD series returns to cinemas worldwide! The 2023–24 season features an exhilarating lineup, including three company premieres, two additional new productions of repertory favorites, and four classic revivals. The season kicks off on October 21 with the highly anticipated Met-premiere production of Jake Heggie’s powerful story of redemption, Dead Man Walking, the most widely performed opera of the last 20 years, starring mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato and bass-baritone Ryan McKinny as Sister Helen Prejean and death-row inmate Joseph De Rocher (pictured). Tickets for the entire season are on sale now!
The Last Thursday Band is a virtuosic ensemble combining diverse musical backgrounds to yield an energetic, powerful mix of classic and contemporary jazz, r&b, and soul with hints of pop, rock and blues.
