Each subscription includes one ticket to each of the 4 MSO concerts in the 2025-26 Season:
75 Years: Sibelius & Mozart
Saturday, October 4, 2025
- Featuring Diana Shapiro and Stanislava Varshavski, piano
- Featuring the Audience’s Choice Selection
We honor Holy Family Conservatory of Music’s 100-year anniversary with Mozart, featuring pianists Diana Shapiro and Stanislava Varshavski, two internationally regarded musicians we’re fortunate to have in our backyard because of the school. As Mozart is about family and teamwork, we recognize the vital community the Conservatory has built over the years.
Saluting MSO’s first Music Director, Karl Miller, we begin a new tradition: Audience Choice. You vote for what we play! One of Maestro Miller’s favorite pieces was Jean Sibelius’ Second Symphony. The music is a “confession of the soul,” as deeply moving as it is brilliantly sounding.
Noel! Bach & Handel
Sunday, December 21, 2025
- featuring Wayne Wildman, organ
- featuring Capitol Civic Centre Community Chorale
Maestro Wildman, the MSO’s revered former Music Director, returns to perform music near and dear. Concertos by Bach and Handel offer sounds fitting to the season: celestial and full of thanks.
CCC Community Chorale joins in the festive joy of singing new American carols by the legendary Alfred Burt and holiday favorites that inspire and make this tradition meaningful.
Valentine’s: Gershwin & Song
Saturday, February 14, 2026
- featuring Cassie Glaeser, soprano; Zachary Glaeser, tenor
- featuring Kelleen Strutz, piano
George Gershwin’s heartfelt and playful piano concerto requires pianist Kelleen Strutz to return home to the Lakeshore. Gershwin’s ingenuity is only rivaled by his ability to write a good tune, and plenty of that is displayed in the capable hands of virtuoso Strutz.
Love, despair, flirtation, and defiance are themes of great opera and stir our passions on this special day. The arias sung will be read as a collection from the greatest of all time—Carmen and Turandot—and sung by two LHS graduates-turned-stars, soprano Cassie Glaeser and tenor Zach Glaeser.
Beloved (1 of 9): Beethoven & Bruch
Saturday, April 11, 2026
- featuring Andrew Dunlap, violin
Another native son returns home. Violinist Andrew Dunlap performs the daring, dazzling, uber-emotive Bruch violin concerto in g minor. The g stands for grandiose. MSO’s 75th season looks forward. We begin a new concert cycle! Over the next nine years, all of Beethoven’s symphonies will be performed. One of the greatest contributions to music, Beethoven’s symphonies have inspired centuries of art worldwide. Beethoven’s First is in the leadoff spot and will rivet you.
