The 25/26 season kicks off with a thrilling blend of jazz, drama, and orchestral storytelling! Paul Dukas’ The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, made famous by Fantasia, sets the stage with its enchanting chaos, followed by Bartók’s suspenseful Suite from The Miraculous Mandarin—performed by HSO for the first time in over 20 years.
The program continues with American innovation: Wynton Marsalis’ jazz-infused Concerto for Tubist and Orchestra, featuring HSO principal tuba Jarrod Briley, and Gershwin’s An American in Paris, a vibrant fusion of jazz and symphonic color.
Experience this dynamic season opener—where classical meets jazz in an unforgettable musical journey!
