The Symphony of Southeast Texas is pleased to announce our third Classic Series concert of the 67th season. Our performance led by Maestro Chelsea Tipton II on February 15, 2020 is all about romance!
Capture the spirit with this concert of Romantic classics. Toast to the spirit of Brahms’ Academic Festive Overture, an overture written to honor his honorary doctorate degree. A combination of four student songs, the piece includes a treatment that celebrates life.
Our concert tonight also features the Fauré Requiem, originally programmed last season, yet unfortunately postponed due to the sudden death of SOST veteran violinist, Yu Gu. This piece will include the SOST chorus and soloists, Dalton Woody and Angela Pickering.
We embrace all emotions and conclude this romantic concert with the Romantic Symphony of Howard Hanson. A picturesque symphony that depicts mountains and oceans which beautifully express Hanson’s love of nature.
Please join us Saturday, on February 15, 2020 at 7:30pm at the Julie Rogers Theatre for Classic Series III. The amazing show could not be possible without the support of our Concert Sponsor, Rosine McFaddin Wilson. Sponsors like this help the Symphony of Southeast Texas play a role in the education, entertainment, and cultural enrichment of all residents of Southeast Texas.
The Symphony of Southeast Texas, embarking on its 67th season, is a regional, professional orchestra based in Beaumont, Texas. The Symphony performs a number of subscription concerts, educational programs and other concerts throughout Southeast Texas each year. SOST’s home base is the Julie Rogers Theatre in downtown Beaumont.
