2011/12 SEASON

2

There is nothing quite like being in the audience at a live performance. No matter how many times you may have heard a piece, each performance brings out something new that you may not have noticed before, a spontaneous turn of phrase, a different interpretation, the unpredictable give and take between the players. I know that every time I step in front of the orchestra, no matter what the piece, I am striving for something new and fresh. The HSO musicians and I look forward to re-creating the special magic that defines each and every Harrisburg Symphony concert. We invite you to peruse our 2011/12 season brochure and join us at the Forum as we “Get INSIDE the Music!”
