NJSO Presents College Night On Apr 6 At State Theatre NJ In New Brunswick
The New Jersey Symphony Orchestra hosts College Night on April 6 at State Theatre New Jersey in New Brunswick. A special $10 student ticket includes entrance to the Orchestra's 8 pm performance of Amjad Ali Khan's Samaagam sarod concerto and Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade, as well as an exclusive post-concert party.
The NJSO will provide free round-trip bus transportation to the concert venue from select New Jersey college campuses. Departure times and locations will be posted at njsymphony.org/college as buses become available.
The concert program, led by Xian Zhang, features Amjad Ali Khan and his sons, Amaan Ali Bangash and Ayaan Ali Bangash, in the NJSO premiere of Khan's concerto. Western and Indian musical streams merge in Samaagam, which means "confluence."
