New West Symphony: Bohemian Rhapsody and Carmen

Start: Saturday, April 5, 2025 7:00PM
End: Saturday, April 5, 2025 9:00PM

Join us for a celebration of significant musical milestones! The year 2025 marks New West Symphony's 30th anniversary. This spurred our Music Director to search out other notable anniversaries, and they're fun! Bizet’s Carmen is one of the most popular operas ever written, and Smetana led us through the picturesque Czech countryside with his Moldau (both written 150 years ago). J.S. Bach was flourishing during his illustrious tenure in Leipzig (300 years ago) and some of the most legendary pop hits were released in 1975 (50 years ago)!
