Join ASO's musicians, Maestro Jin Kim and area students as we discover the mastery of Grieg's Peer Gynt. This music contains some of the most recognizable, beautiful and exciting classical harmonies.

Step into the elegance of the Classical era with an afternoon devoted to the genius of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, from the sacred to the celebratory, and featuring the Austin organ.

The program opens with the sparkling Serenata Notturna, a playful, regal serenade full of wit and charm. Next, delight in the graceful simplicity of Mozart's Church Sonatas, brief, radiant organ works that capture his gift for clarity and balance. We close with the majestic Linz Symphony, written in just four days and overflowing with joyful energy and brilliant orchestration. Celebrate Mozart's timeless brilliance in an afternoon of music that continues to enchant and uplift, centuries later. This concert is made possible by the generous sponsorship of Diane and Kirk Hartung.

Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and now calling Colorado home, horticulturist/musician Gregory Alan Isakov has cast an impressive presence on the indie-rock and folk worlds with his six full-length studio albums: That Sea, The Gambler; This Empty Northern Hemisphere; The Weatherman; Gregory Alan Isakov with the Colorado Symphony; Evening Machines (nominated for a Grammy Award® for Best Folk Album), and Appaloosa Bones. Isakov tours internationally with his band, and has performed with several national symphony orchestras across the United States. Isakov’s new record, Appaloosa Bones, was released via Dualtone/Suitcase Town Music. Of the album, MOJO states, “Prime Isakov: his velvet baritone glides over elegant and shimmering Wild West mirages.” The Associated Press proclaims, “He has that magical ability to convey both urgency and grandeur at the same time…Simple. Straightforward. Utterly evocative.” And No Depression declares, “this is Isakov’s genius. He turns a short poem into a magnificent piece of music that can captivate for hours.” When he is not on the road, he runs Starling Farm (a small farm in Boulder County), which provides produce to CSA members, restaurants, and Community Food Share (a local food bank).
