A crowning statement for the Centennial Season, Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 stands among the most powerful and uplifting works ever written. Performed with four acclaimed vocal soloists and combined choruses, it brings a stirring message of unity and hope. The program also celebrates Stockton with Virgil Thomson's Stockton Fanfare, Max Simoncic's new Fanfare, and Anna Clyne's Masquerade, a modern burst of orchestral color.
