Next Performance
Verdi’s Requiem
There are pieces and there are PIECES. The Verdi Requiem has been called monumental, powerful, cathartic, and sublime. See which adjective you choose for this masterwork, featuring the talents of the Utah Voices choir and local professional soloists. Dr. Everett McCorvey, the conductor of the National Chorale at Lincoln Center and the American Spiritual Ensemble is our special guest conductor for a memorable evening of music.

Director’s Message
Welcome to the 48th Season of YOUR Salt Lake Symphony! It is with great pleasure that I welcome and invite you to another fantastic season of music by one of the nation’s most dedicated volunteer orchestras. Many people tell me they are surprised this is not a professional orchestra, especially given the full schedule, major repertoire presented, and, most importantly, the quality of our performances. I always respond that we have the most dedicated orchestra I’ve ever worked with. The talent, focus, and enthusiasm are second to none.
This season will highlight known masterpieces and music “waiting in the wings” for you to experience. As always, we will highlight local Utah talent and look forward to doing our part to foster the future generation of musicians and music-lovers. We also look forward to an expanded presence during the summer, so be prepared to hear music in places you might not expect!
Like all creative ventures, it would not be possible without the support of our friends, patrons, and supporters. You can assist in many ways, from letting your friends know about our concerts, to making a tax-deductible gift. Please remember the joy you receive as we play music when considering your philanthropic gifts. It is certainly our joy to perform music for you!
Sincerely,
Robert Baldwin
Music Director/Conductor
