Houston Symphony to Welcome Sutton Foster, Bill Cosby & More in January 2015

The Houston Symphony's January calendar starts the New Year with an impressive lineup of concerts including an intimate concert experience with commentary from Andrés Orozco-Estrada. "Musically Speaking with Andrés" begins with Shostakovich's Symphony No. 12, The Year 1917. On January 17-18, twin sisters Christina and Michelle Naughton will perform a masterful two-piano musical dialogue in Mozart and Shostakovich.

Join Andrés and the Houston Symphony for Mozart's Abduction, an exotic opera-in-concert performance featuring a damsel in distress, Turkish pirates and Pasha's harem on January 23 and January 25. Spend January 24 with Bill Cosby at Jones Hall as he shares his unique style of comedy that has entertained generations.

On January 29, Associate Conductor Robert Franz will share the world of music with Houston-area elementary students at the Detectives Concert on January 29. Sutton Foster will wrap up the month with two riveting evenings filled with hits from Shrek: The Musical and Anything Goes on January 30-31.
