Symphony in the Community

Concert & conversation — featuring Mississippi Valley State University Singers, pianist Tyler Kemp, poetry of Terrance Hayes & Cade Chapel Chorale 

In addition to our regular season, MSO is pleased to introduce new opportunities to hear fresh voices. These collaborative concerts celebrate the rich local talents of our shared community of music. The informal, free matinees present innovative combinations and unexpected wonders in repertoire and performance, plus offer a post-concert opportunity to chat with the artists, share insights and learn more.

From the enduring classical roots of Saint-Georges, Coleridge-Taylor, and Tchaikovsky to the popular contemporary strains of Alexis Ffrench, this program’s impressive lineup puts a fresh spin on spring. The Mississippi Valley State University Singers, pianist Tyler Kemp, and the poetry of Terrance Hayes fuse their talents to send our collective spirits into the stratosphere. Stay for the informal post-concert chat to share insights and learn more.
