PINES OF ROME
(season finale)
Conductor Eric Garcia
May 16 & 17, 2026
Morrison Center
Be swept up in the infectious energy of Javelin, an audience favorite originally composed for the Olympics by American composer Michael Torke. Be dazzled by the keyboard gymnastics of Rachmaninoff’s Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini performed by Stewart Goodyear, “one of the best pianists of his generation” (Philadelphia Inquirer). Be immersed in the shimmering grace and beauty of Respighi’s Fountains of Rome before being swallowed whole by Pines of Rome, the majestic finale to our 2025-26 season.
