Energy. Courage. Ascent. — ESYO RISE
Join ESYO for an afternoon that builds from first notes to full-throttle celebration. The Repertory Orchestra opens with the glowing lyricism of Howard Hanson’s “Nordic” (II), the curtain-raising drama of Verdi’s Nabucco Overture, and the city-bright swagger of Gershwin’s An American in Paris Suite (arr. Whitney).
The Symphony Orchestra turns that momentum into lift: Viet Cuong’s Re(new)al powers the ensemble with a virtuosic percussion quartet, Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 4 moves from a bold brass call to a finale that bursts with celebration, and Jacob Fanto’s Up We Go! sends the night off with a buoyant, grin-inducing launch.
Two orchestras. One big idea: rise together through music. Come cheer on the next generation of artists.

We encourage you to donate to the ACCESS ESYO ticket bank , contributing a "seat" for a future patron.

ACCESS ESYO allows you to purchase concert tickets for as little as $1 per seat, and is sustained through an ongoing "pay it forward" campaign that invites those who can, to contribute the "gift of music" to our online ACCESS ESYO ticket bank. ESYO has never turned away a qualified musician due to economic hardship and annually awards $30,000 in scholarships and tuition assistance. Now, we are taking steps to ensure that we never turn away an enthusiastic audience member for the same reason.

Please take advantage of ACCESS ESYO to bring your entire family by purchasing as many tickets as you need at the price point of your choice, available by calling the Box Office at 518-346-6204 or visiting during business hours and providing the ACCESS ESYO code.

To obtain the code needed to purchase ACCESS ESYO tickets, please email Mary Rose Petrozola at mpetrozola@esyo.org

Suggested Ticket Price: $25.00 per seat.
