Conductor, Elias Miller
Sam Wu – Eagle Huntress
Tchaikovsky – Serenade for Strings in C Major, Op. 48
Haydn – Symphony No. 83 in G Minor (“La Poule”)
Join Assistant Conductor Elias Miller for our Summer Night Music series as he leads the Columbus Symphony in an exciting program inspired by birds. Contemporary composer Sam Wu’s Eagle Huntress calls on the sounds of traditional Mongolian music to tell the story of a fearless girl determined to forge her own path. Haydn’s charming Symphony No. 83 is known as La poule — listen for the sounds of the hen that inspired this fanciful nickname. Tchaikovsky’s warm and lush Serenade for Strings, a perennial favorite, is the perfect way to round out a summer evening of invigorating music.
The Summer Night Music Neighborhood Concert Series brings classical music out to central Ohio communities and provides a relaxed setting for sharing symphonic music with friends and neighbors.
Tickets can be purchased in advance or at the door.
