Salina Symphony
The Salina Symphony’s 70th Anniversary Season will open with a stellar multimedia concert on Sunday, October 5 at 4:00 pm at the Stiefel Theatre.
The concert will open with a breathtaking performance of Holst’s majestic The Planets, featuring world renowned projection artist Camilla Tassi’s visual interpretation of the iconic score, including images from the Boom! Salina Street Art & Mural Festival.
Following intermission, Daniel Slatkin’s evocative “Voyager 130” will transport you to the farthest reaches of space. The concert will culminate in a thrilling trio of themes from Star Wars: Imperial March, Duel of the Fates, and Main Title.
“This program offers a rare opportunity to experience the grandeur of Holst’s The Planets alongside the iconic scores of Star Wars,” said Yaniv Segal, music director. “Enhanced by striking visual elements, the performance invites audiences to explore the intersection of music, outer space, and cinematic storytelling on a truly cosmic scale.”
The orchestra will be joined by the KWU Philharmonic Choir and select ensembles from Salina Central, Salina South, and Southeast of Saline High Schools.
This project is funded in part by the Horizons Grants Program of the Salina Arts and Humanities Foundation. Funding is provided by Horizons, a private donor group.
