Masterworks Concert 4: Echoes of Home
Saturday, February 13, 2027, 7:30 PM, Ardrey Auditorium
The program:
Peter Maxwell Davies: An Orkney Wedding, with Sunrise
Max Bruch: Scottish Fantasy, Op. 46
Andrew Sords, violin
William Dawson: Negro Folk Symphony
Travel with us through three stunning musical landscapes. Peter Maxwell Davies’s An Orkney Wedding, with Sunrise is a piece that earns its surprise ending—probably the best possible combination of bagpipes and orchestra. Violinist Andrew Sords returns to Flagstaff to join us for Max Bruch’s joyful and impressive Scottish Fantasy, one of the violin repertoire’s most richly scored showpieces. The evening closes with William Dawson’s Negro Folk Symphony, a pioneering work for both American music and African American composers.

Mendelssohn: Elijah
2027-04-17 19:30 - 21:30
Masterworks Concert 5: Mendelssohn: Elijah
Saturday, April 17, 2027, 7:30 PM – Season Finale, Ardrey Auditorium
The program:
Felix Mendelssohn: Elijah In collaboration with NAU’s Shrine of the Ages Choir and Master Chorale of Flagstaff
Mendelssohn’s Elijah is one of the great choral works in the repertoire—sweeping, dramatic, theatrical, and entirely satisfying from start to finish. Chorusmaster Timothy Westerhaus leads FSO alongside the combined forces of NAU’s Shrine of the Ages Choir and Master Chorale of Flagstaff in a full-evening performance of this powerfully impressive oratorio. A fitting close to FSO’s 77th season.
