Join us for the opening of the 2025-26 season, a special celebration of Palmetto Chamber Orchestra's 10th anniversary as we take you on a musical journey through sound of dreams and thrilling adventures, and Masquerade experiences.
The concert's highlights include: Gounod's “Funeral March of the Marionettes,” a haunting and theatrical piece that sets the tone for an eerie adventure into the unknown; Faure's “Bergamasque Suite,” a lively and folk-inspired composition that evokes the spirit of a serene moonlit countryside. Experience the delicate tones of Franz Strauss' “Nocturne” for French Horn and Chamber Orchestra, an exquisite serenade that invites listeners into a world of nocturnal imagery and dreams. The highlight of the evening will be the world premiere of "Behind the Mask," a captivating suite by TJ Huggins exploring themes of mystery and transformation, promising to leave you spellbound.
Embrace the spirit of dreams and adventures by coming in costume or wearing a mask to become part of the theatrical experience! Don’t miss this unforgettable experience full of excitement and lasting memories.
Concert is free to the public. Donations are suggested and appreciated.
