2007-08 Season
We've Got Music for You!
Welcome to the 2007-08 Season! Join us for another year of classical masterworks
and popular favorites, led by Michael Christie, The Phoenix Symphony's Virginia
G. Piper Music Director.
With the 2007-08 Season, The Phoenix Symphony invites you to experience a wide-ranging
array of musical tastes and styles. Featured composers for this season are
Johannes Brahms, Leonard Bernstein, and Osvaldo Golijov. Woven throughout
the Classics, Pops and Symphonic Favorites performances around the Valley, these
three composers compliment a stunning concert schedule, including Opening Night
with Dennis Rowland, the masterful Broadway star Bernadette Peters, and opera great
Dawn Upshaw performing Ainadamar!
In addition, in honor of The Phoenix Symphony's 60th Anniversary Season, the orchestra
will undertake a newly-commissioned work by composer Mark Grey, based on Navajo
mythology. The work, Enemy Slayer: A Navajo Oratorio, will have its world-premiere
Feb. 7th at Symphony Hall, and incorporates a libretto penned by ASU professor and
Navajo poet Laura Tohe. It's a performance not to be missed, and available
here first as part of a Classics subscription!
We look forward to renewing our musical relationship with Symphony patrons, and
developing new friends in the 2007-08 Season. Seen and heard by more than
265,000 annually, The Phoenix Symphony offers more than 275 concerts and presentations
each year, bringing the experience of live music to children and adults throughout
Arizona - as well as visitors from across the country and the world!
From September 2007 to May 2008, from Symphony Pops to your favorite classical symphonies,
downtown Phoenix to North Scottsdale and Prescott, from our popular "Symphony for
the Schools" program, to your favorite movie music to dazzling concertos by Beethoven,
Mozart, and Shostakovich - we've got music for you!
