COFFEE CONCERT: Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony
September 12, 2025 11:00 am
Eric Jacobsen, conductor
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 5
The first of three amazing fifth symphonies kicks off our celebration of five seasons with Music Director Eric Jacobsen. Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony takes the listener on a transformative journey from struggle to triumph while showcasing the artistry of the VSO musicians.
Celebrating his fifth season, Eric Jacobsen serves as the Virginia Symphony Orchestra’s twelfth Music Director, the Macon & Joan Brock Chair. He is also artistic director and co-founder of The Knights, the uniquely adventurous NYC-based chamber orchestra, and Music Director of the Orlando Philharmonic. In addition to conducting, Eric is a dedicated chamber musician (cello) and is a member of Yo-Yo Ma’s Silk Road Ensemble.
Coffee concerts are hour-long concerts without intermission presenting selections from the Classics program that will be performed that evening. Come early for complimentary coffee and muffins in the lobby starting at 10am.
