Hear it Live!

Nothing compares with the thrill of a live performance. From the first moment of the orchestra tuning until the last chord of the final piece, Gulf Coast Symphony concerts are an experience not to be missed!

This season spans the history of music from the Baroque to the present day– ranging from Handel to the beautiful guitar concerto by Richard Harvey. Featured soloists include guitarist Nicolas Ciraldo, violinist Ivan Zenaty making a return appearance, and back by popular demand, pianist Julius Kim.
