Italian Getaway

Ready for a winter escape? Jet off to sun-drenched Italy with Mendelssohn’s “Italian” Symphony and blast off with a rare gem by legendary film composer John Williams: his bold and joyful Tuba Concerto. From rolling hills and Roman sunshine to bold brass and blockbuster flair, experience this musical postcard from Italy and a cinematic star turn from the tuba, all in just one hour of music. Join us for happy hour specials before the concert, then stay after for a casual chat with the stars. It’s your January getaway, no passport required.
