Event Details

TWO MUSICAL TITANS. ONE UNFORGETTABLE NIGHT.

This October, the season doesn’t simply begin—it erupts.

Step into the iconic Herbst Theatre on Saturday, October 3 at 7:30 PM for an evening of orchestral power, drama, beauty, and sheer exhilaration.

First, the thunderous spectacle of Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture—a musical battle cry that surges from tension and anticipation to one of the most triumphant finales ever written.

Then, prepare to be swept away by Mahler’s Symphony No. 1—a breathtaking journey through mysterious sounds, serene beauty, restless energy, and ultimately a finale of astonishing, heart-racing power.

Two giants of the repertoire.
Two unforgettable musical journeys.
One spectacular opening night.

 Tchaikovsky — 1812 Overture
Mahler — Symphony No. 1
