Brevard Symphony Orchestra
Lisa Ferrigno

2016 begins with a fanfare as the Brevard Symphony Orchestra takes the stage on Saturday, January 23rd, at the King Center for the Performing Arts in Melbourne for Voyage to Jupiter.  Under the direction of Music Director and Principal conductor Christopher Confessore, the orchestra will present Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s finale masterpiece, his Symphony No. 41.   Its grace and elegance epitomize the Classical era, and its densely contrapuntal Finale helped earn it the nickname Jupiter.  The concert begins with John Corigliano’s deeply moving Voyage for Strings.  The performance will also feature BSO concertmaster Lisa Ferrigno for Johann Sebastian Bach’s Violin Concerto in E Major.  Guests can enhance their concert experience by arriving early and joining in on Concert Conversations with Christopher Confessore.  This informative and interactive chat begins approximately 40 minutes before the performance.  Performances begin at 2:00pm and 8:00pm.  For tickets, call the King Center Box Office at (321) 242-2219 or purchase online at www.brevardsymphony.com.
