Schooltime: Sound Fusion

Bernstein: Overture to Candide
Ravel: Le Tombeau de Couperin
Bates: Philharmonia Fantastique: The Making of the Orchestra
Stravinsky: Suite from The Firebird. V. Finale

How can disparate elements create something new? Associate Conductor Jacob Joyce leads the Pittsburgh premiere of Mason Bates’ multi-media concerto Philharmonia Fantastique, fusing the creative vision of one of America’s leading composers with the technological brilliance of Skywalker Ranch film and sound professionals. The result is an incredible journey across mediums and into the heart of the orchestra.

No physical tickets will be issued for Schooltime concerts. All groups will be checked in by a PSO staff member on the day of the concert and must be registered in advance to attend. All schools are responsible for securing transportation. Concerts are held during the school day.
