The season opens on November 5 with “Welcome Back” which pairs Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony with guest soloist Snow Bai performing a Canadian composition on the traditional Chines erhu.
A tradition returns on December 10 with “A Holiday Welcome” of classical and popular seasonal music featuring baritone James Westman.
Celebrate Valentine’s Day a little early with “An Intimate Welcome” on February 4 – a concert of smaller ensemble delights.
On April 1 the PSO is ready to “Welcome Spring” with Sibelius and Tchaikovsky, featuring virtuoso pianist Alexander Panizza.
To cap off the season the PSO will share the stage with Poet Laureate Sarah Lewis for “Welcome to the Dance” – an evening of words and music including “Symphonic Dances from West Side Story.”
All performances are at 7:30 p.m. and take place at Showplace Performance Centre.
