Hershey Symphony Orchestra Announces 50th Season

By:

Hershey Symphony Orchestra Announces 50th Season  ImageThe Hershey Symphony opens its 50th season on Saturday, September 22, 2018 at 8pm at the Hershey Theatre with "A Tribute to John Williams - Part 2". The concert brings a second helping of possibly the world's best known and beloved composer, John Williams. The Symphony's 2016 Williams tribute concert was so well received that the Orchestra was compelled to do this sequel featuring more of his 100+ film themes.

Audience members will relive the magic of Harry Potter, the emotions of E.T., the deep feelings of Saving Private Ryan, the suspense of Jaws and, of course, the excitement of Star Wars. Carol Jantsch, principal tuba of the Philadelphia Orchestra, will be featured on John Williams' Concerto for Tuba and Orchestra. Special guest conductor for this concert will be Gregory Woodbridge.

Tickets range from $17 to $22 and may be purchased by contacting the Hershey Theatre Box Office at 717-534-3405. Processing fees apply.
