Symphony: Unexpected
Event published by Southwest Michigan Symphony Orchestra
Immerse yourself in the unexpected as the Southwest Michigan Symphony Orchestra seamlessly blends music and visuals in this innovative concert.
Three distinct works represent the ongoing, cutting-edge evolution of symphony music: Mothership (2011) features improvised solos and electronica, while Film Noir: Concerto for Electric Guitar and Orchestra (2023) features DJ Sparr's electrifying solos to deliver modern energy. Our performance of Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition (1874) is accompanied by a visually stunning film.
Produced at the USC School of Cinematic Arts, this acclaimed visual masterpiece, likened to Disney's Fantasia, adds a unique layer to Mussorgsky's timeless composition. Featuring a side-by-side performance with our Lake Michigan Youth Orchestra.
This performance at the Lake Michigan College's Mendel Center Jenkins Theatre (formerly Mainstage), begins at 7:30 pm and is preceded at 6:30 pm by a pre-concert conversation with Maestro Matthew Aubin.
