Head out for a night on the town with the San Luis Obispo Symphony’s opening night on Oct. 8.
This is the first of five Classics in the Cohan concerts at the Cal Poly Performing Arts Center, featuring Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony. In a matter of eight notes, this symphony is one of the most recognizable and beloved pieces of music played around the globe. Maestro Andrew Sewell, music director of the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra, will lead the symphony with virtuoso violinist Giora Schmidt as a featured soloist. Sewell is the first candidate for the open music director position to perform with the symphony this season. Tickets are available at pacslo.org.
