Samuel Barber: Overture to The School for Scandal
Samuel Coleridge-Taylor: Violin Concerto
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 1
Step into a world of beauty, drama, and deep emotion. Let the power of music celebrate the love and joy in your life. This concert is a musical journey that connects heart and soul.
We begin with Samuel Barber’s Overture to The School for Scandal—a playful, high-spirited burst of wit and charm that sets the tone for a night of bold expression.
Violin soloist Jesse Holstein joins the orchestra for Samuel Coleridge-Taylor’s Violin Concerto—a lush, soulful work pulsing with lyricism and passion. Written by a brilliant Black British composer whose music was nearly lost to history, this concerto is a rediscovered gem that stirs the spirit and honors resilience.
We close with the sweeping beauty of Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 1, "Winter Dreams"—a tender, evocative portrait of longing, memory, and the quiet magic of the season.
Let this concert be your midwinter reset—a chance to feel inspired, reconnected, and swept away by music that speaks directly to the heart.

The New Bedford Symphony Orchestra is dedicated to the proposition that classical music can enrich and transform lives. That is why we are very pleased to offer you exciting, moving, and beautiful music. It is also why we remain committed to expanding the educational programs we offer to children in our region—last year more than 8,000 children benefited from our music programs! And finally, it is why we continue to build strong relationships with other music and cultural organizations in our region. We believe collaboration makes all organizations, and our community, stronger. Whether you are a first-time concertgoer or an NBSO regular, we welcome you to our community of music!

There is a limit of up to 9 tickets for a single performance. To purchase 10 or more tickets for a single performance, please contact the box office at (508) 994-2900 for a group sale.
A ticket limit helps to ensure fairness in the market and mitigates the possibility of large numbers of seats being stockpiled by third-party sellers.

At an artist's request, ticket limits may be less than 9 per order for their performance.
