Cornell Symphony Orchestra Concert

Embark on a musical journey through the cosmos with the Cornell Symphony Orchestra! This year’s Young Person’s Concert, inspired by the wonders of space, features a collaboration with the Carl Sagan Institute and the world premiere of Ex Terra, Ad Astra, a thrilling new work by Cornell alumna Cheryl Engelhardt commissioned especially for this concert. The program also includes Missy Mazzoli’s Sinfonia (for Orbiting Spheres), selections from Holst’s The Planets, and Bruch’s Scottish Fantasy featuring Dean Zhang, this year’s concerto competition winner in the Symphony Orchestra category. Don’t miss the instrumental petting zoo before the concert at 2:30 p.m.—it’s fun for the whole family!
