Joliet, Ill. – The Joliet Symphony Orchestra’s 2024-2025 Season continues with “Pictures” on Saturday, November 23 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, November 24 at 4 p.m. The concerts will take place in the Sexton Auditorium (Moser Performing Arts Center) on the main campus of University of St. Francis (USF), which is located at 500 Wilcox Street in Joliet.
This concert of musical “postcards” offers a special opportunity for audience members to be a part of and connect with the music and make special memories for everyone in attendance. Jean Sibelius’ ever-popular Finlandia, Sir Edward Elgar’s striking Serenade for Strings, Maurice Ravel’s melancholic Pavane pour une infante defunte, and Alexander Borodin’s panoramic In the Steppes of Central Asia will guide us to our final piece: Modest Mussorgsky’s tour de force Pictures at an Exhibition.
Don’t forget to come 45 minutes early to our performances and enjoy an opportunity to learn more about the music during our “Noteworthy” pre-concert chats with Artistic Director & Conductor Sean Paul Mills and guests.
