Welcome to The Phil's 2025-2026 Season!

Our 2025-2026 season explores themes of history, life, nature, and culture. Our October concert opens with Peter Boyer's "Ellis Island" and closes with the contrasting "Symphony #12" of Dimitri Shostakovich. You may remember that Peter Boyer was also the composer of "Rhapsody in Red, White, and Blue", which opened our season last year. We move into the Holiday Season performing with the New England Dance Ensemble's "Nutcracker" and finishing with our popular Holiday Pops concert. In February, we awaken your inner romantic with a special Valentine's Day program. In April, we welcome David Kim, concertmaster of the Philadelphia Orchestra, as soloist in Vivaldi's always magical ode to nature, "The Four Seasons", and conclude with Vaughn William's serene "Symphony #5". Our final concert of the year features Carlos Chavez's homage to his Mexican heritage, "Sinfonia India", Bruch's "Scottish Fantasy" highlighting young violin virtuoso William Yeh, and concluding with Stravinsky's exciting "Petrushka". In a change for this season, both Saturday and Sunday concerts will be 2:00 pm matinees.
