Pedro da Silva: Concerto for Portuguese Guitar and Orchestra
Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony No. 9

Two worlds meet in a concert of breathtaking contrast and shared humanity.

Virtuoso Pedro da Silva, who is based in New York City but was born in New Bedford, brings the shimmering voice of the Portuguese guitar to the forefront in his own Concerto for Portuguese Guitar and Orchestra—a spellbinding work that blends classical traditions with Iberian flair, improvisation, and global rhythms.

Beethoven’s monumental Symphony No. 9 lifts the evening to transcendent heights. From its stirring opening to the triumphant “Ode to Joy” finale, this is music that celebrates unity, freedom, and the enduring power of the human spirit. This piece never fails to fill you with awe and hope.

A night where passion meets purpose—and joy resounds.
