The Hendersonville Symphony’s 2019-2020 season continues Saturday, October 12 at 7:30 p.m. with “The City of Music,” a concert that features music from some of the world’s most renowned composers who defined classical music, a high-energy violin virtuoso soloist, an accomplished guest conductor and more engaging options for ticket holders.

Tickets for the performance and all concerts of the Hendersonville Symphony and its new series, “Hendersonville Symphony Presents” can be purchased at their website, www.hendersonvillesymphony.org, or by calling 828-697-5884.  Tickets to the October 12 performance are $45 for adults and $12 for students.

All season Symphony concerts are held at Blue Ridge Community College’s Conference/Concert Hall in Flat Rock. The evening begins with a pre-concert discussion at 6:30 p.m. with guest conductor
David Glover and violinist Zachary DePue, open to all ticket holders. At 6:45, a harpist  will perform  pre-concert music spanning many music genres in the auditorium lobby.

Vienna, Austria, often known as the city of music, is a world music capital where more famous composers lived than any other city.  They came, stayed and wrote some of the world’s most timeless classical music that continues to be performed today. At this concert, the Hendersonville Symphony will perform works including Lehar’s “Overture to The Merry Widow,” Beethoven’s “Egmont Overture,” Brahms’ “Variations on a Theme of Hayden,” and Strauss’ “The Emperor Waltz” and “Tritsch-Tratsch Polka.”  The orchestra will be joined by violinist Zachary DePue for Mozart’s “Violin Concerto No. 5.”

The concert is sponsored in part by Fields Auto Group. The guest artist is sponsored by Knox Law Firm.

Zachary DePue, violinist, has established himself in concert venues around the world, delivering virtuosic high-energy performances. He demonstrates command as a soloist, collaborator, and improvisational artist reaching across a diverse landscape of music. His authentic warmth and generosity on stage invites audiences to join him in all his explorations.
