We kick off our 41st season on Sunday, October 6, 2024, as we welcome Tony DeSare and his band back to the stage at the Glens Falls High School auditorium as they perform with the orchestra their “Sinatra and Beyond” show. From jazz clubs to Carnegie Hall to Las Vegas and headlining major symphony orchestras, DeSare has brought his fresh take on old school class around the globe. Tony currently has four top ten Billboard jazz albums under his belt. His sound is romantic, swinging and sensual, but what sets him apart is his ability to write original material that sounds fresh and contemporary, yet pays homage to the Great American Songbook.

Our 40th Anniversary Season comes to an epic conclusion on Sunday May 5, 2024, with Mozart’s magnificent final work, commissioned by an anonymous stranger. The Mozart Requiem occupies a special place in all of music.

Shrouded in mystery, Mozart’s Requiem has sparked stories since the composer’s tragic, troubled death at age 35. Writing in a creative frenzy, pouring out his genius in an attempt to improve his fortunes while fearing his impending death, he put everything he had into this astonishing masterpiece that remains beloved by audiences more than two centuries after its first performance.

The symphony proudly welcomes guest artists: Soprano Jazmine Saunders, Mezzo Soprano Grace Heldridge, Tenor Patrick Bessenbacher, and bass Robert Feng performing the vocal quartet solo parts. The orchestra is thrilled to welcome back Adirondack Voices, celebrating their 25th Anniversary this year!
