Alpharetta Symphony Orchestra - Dvorak 8th
Details
Friday, November 7, 2025 at 7:30pm
Innovation Academy Auditorium
Pre-Concert Talk Starting at 6:30pm
Written with cheerfulness and romantic folk music as the inspiration, Dvořák’s 8th Symphony is a perfect spirit-lifter as we head into the chill of the colder months. You’ll ride the peaks and valleys of the shepherds’ and farmers’ lives depicted musically. Then, Alex Wasserman takes to the keys to set off the fireworks that lie throughout Franz Liszt’s Piano Concerto No. 1. These two must-hear pieces are perfectly paired with the opening music to the opera, Zampa, all about unrequited love, deception, and a pirate!
Two items: It is recommended to buy concert tickets in advance through their website. Secondly, the music 'lecture' which starts an hour before the concert at 6:30 is highly recommended.
