Free Admission! Reserved seating will become available on September 25 at Miller Outdoor Theatre's website.ROCO launches its 21st season and Albert and Margaret Alkek Foundation In Concert Series with Feels Like Home–a back-to-back concert weekend led by Artistic Partner Delyana Lazarova. Featuring guest concertmaster Margaret Batjer (LACO), the season opens with three world premieres and a powerful symphony rediscovered on Friday, September 26, 7:30 p.m., at Miller Outdoor Theatre and Saturday, September 27, 5:00 p.m., at The Church of St. John the Divine.
ROCO Principal Clarinetist Nathan Williams is featured in a new clarinet concertino by Season 21 Composer-In-Residence Kevin Lau titled At the Still Point of the Turning World, inspired by Williams’ work in hospice care. The orchestra then dives into GRAMMY-winning composer Starr Parodi’s Rip Tide, a newly commissioned work shaped by her personal story of loss and resilience. Composer Heather Schmidt writes an uplifting tribute to real-life husky rescues in a new piece premiering in partnership with local shelters and rescue organizations. The concert concludes with Symphony No. 4 in B minor, the work of a pioneering, yet little-known, composer and Beethoven contemporary, Emilie Mayer.
