Albany Symphony Opening Night at Palace Theatre

Music Director David Alan Miller and the musicians of the Albany Symphony return to the stage for the start of the orchestra’s 2022-2023 Season with
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s glorious Fifth Symphony; Joel Thompson’s An Act of Resistance, his cry for peace; and the Albany Symphony debut of pianist Stewart Goodyear, playing Edvard Grieg’s beloved Piano Concerto.

“We are so excited to welcome our entire Capital Region community to join us for the Albany Symphony’s Opening Night Concert,” said Music Director David Alan Miller. “It will be a glorious evening of great music, featuring two monumental Romantic masterpieces, Tchaikovsky’s luminous Fifth Symphony and the dazzling Piano Concerto that Edvard Grieg wrote when he was a mere 24 years old. We are delighted to welcome the great Canadian pianist Stewart Goodyear to
join us for the first time and are also thrilled that one of America’s most exciting young composers, Joel Thompson, will be with us for his inspirational work about love and understanding, ‘An Act of Resistance.’”

Tickets for Albany Symphony’s opening night concert are $20 to $65 and are available at 518-694-3300, AlbanySymphony.com, and the Albany Symphony Box Office at 19 Clinton Avenue, Albany. David Alan Miller, Heinrich Medicus Music Director.
