Witness the next generation of musical leaders as Academy students conduct the Festival Artists in Samuel Coleridge Taylor’s virtuosic and mighty Nonet. With a dance-inspired first half, this concert will have you toe-tapping in no time.

If you’ve missed traveling, fear not! This concert will feel like a musical tour from your favorite trip abroad. Tchaikovsky wrote his Souvenir de Florence as a musical memory of his adventures in Italy. If only our own vacation slideshows sounded so good!

Nothing restores the soul like time spent in the great outdoors. Virginia composers Adolphus Hailstork and Alexandra Molnar-Suhajda offer two engaging but completely different perspectives on the American landscape, while Haydn greets the day with a classical sunrise not-to-be-missed.
