Dear Friends of the Symphony,

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the San Angelo Symphony’s 76th Season under the inspired leadership of Maestro Hector Guzman, Music Director and Conductor.  This year promises unforgettable performances, world class artistry, and moments that will stay with you long after the final note.

We open the Season in grand style with “The Pianists,” featuring the brilliant talents of Daniel del Pino and Elias Manzo.  In November, experience the magic of cinema, as we highlight the iconic music of Star Wars – a concert that will thrill fans of every generation.  During the most wonderful time of the year, enjoy a performance of “Holly Jolly Holiday Pops” that features solo artists Carlos Demitri Carillo and Patti Wetzel.

February transports us to warmer skies with “A Night in the Tropics,” a vibrant collage of rhythm and color from Brazil, Cuba, Hawaii and more.  Our guest conductor, Simon Gollo, and trumpeter Charles Lazarus will keep you on the edge of your seat.  As our season draws to a close, we honor the Golden Era of music with the dynamic, Grammy award winning, Mariachi Los Camperos.  The evening is guaranteed to lift your spirit and stir your soul.

Make plans to join us for the San Angelo Symphony’s season of special events! We will feature two Dinner Series parties, Tour of Tables, and the popular community-wide event, Polo on the Concho. Proceeds from these events benefit the organization’s artistic, educational, and operational endeavors. Don’t hesitate to reach out to the Symphony with any questions – we hope to see you throughout the party season!

Please mark your calendars now.  This is a season you don’t want to miss!  We can’t wait to share it with you.

Very truly yours,

Michelle Taylor-Chinn
