The Peterborough Symphony Orchestra (PSO) is excited to kick off the 2025-2026 season with a concert filled with “Bright Lights.” The concert will feature the instantly recognizable Overture to the Barber of Seville, a comical mini-masterpiece by Rossini and wraps up with Mozart’s final Symphony, no. 41 called “Jupiter.” The symphony perfectly joins the mind and the soul in one of the greatest works ever written.Under the direction of Music Director Michael Newnham, the orchestra will play Canadian composer, Dinuk Wijertane’s Concerto for Tabla and Orchestra. Guest artist Shawn Mativetsky joins the PSO for the first time, having played this work under the baton of the composer. The exciting new concerto will be the first time the orchestra will have featured a tabla. Wijertane’s clear, lucid and rhythmic style provides a perfect pairing to the Rossini and the Mozart.
