Symphony Orchestra
Passions
The CU Boulder Symphony Orchestra presents “Passions,” a concert of orchestral works filled with striking imagery, national pride, global colors and epic soundscapes: Roberto Sierra’s impressionistic and rhapsodic work "Fandangos" reimagines the dance form through Baroque and contemporary views; Gyula Dávid’s soulful viola concerto will feature the 2024-25 College of Music Concerto Competition winner Finn Cruit; and the performance will conclude with Antonín Dvořák’s towering Symphony No. 7 in D minor which the composer prayed would stir the world.
The CU Boulder Symphony Orchestra performs a diverse repertoire, including symphonies and large-scale orchestral works by major composers, at Macky Auditorium.
From orchestras, bands and choirs, to jazz and world music ensembles, to world-class faculty and guest performances, the College of Music brings hundreds of stunning, free performances to Boulder audiences throughout the academic year.
Whether it’s $5 or $100, your gift will help the work of the College of Music continue to inspire artistry and discovery, together. Please pay what you can before or after enjoying this special presentation—or join us for free!
