A letter from our Music Director

“Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue” — good advice to describe our 2026–27 season: Revolutions.

We open with music from the widest range of films, from Gone with the Wind to Taxi Driver. In November we turn to music that revolutionized cultures and the arts — Beethoven’s Eroica, Mozart’s Figaro, and Copland’s Appalachian Spring.

And in May, for the first time in Glens Falls, we perform Holst’s monumental The Planets — a universe of sound under the stars of our own community.
