Join Georgia Philharmonic on an interplanetary musical journey as we conclude the 2023/2024 season with Holst’s groundbreaking work, The Planets, accompanied by video and images from NASA and other leading space agencies. 
Holst was inspired by the importance of the planets in Roman and Greek mythology and ultimately composed a work of seven movements, each of which is named after planet of the solar system and its astrological character. Holst described this work as a “series of mood pictures” each evoking a different idea and emotion: Mars—the destruction of war; Jupiter—jollity and patriotism; Venus—peace; Mercury—fluidity and volatility; Saturn—the wisdom of old age; Neptune—infinity of space; and Uranus—the magic of the cosmos. Used as inspiration for the soundtrack to popular films such as Star Wars, this is a season finale you won’t want to miss!

The Georgia Symphony Orchestra ends its 73rd season with ‘Beethoven’s Universe,’ an awe-inspiring, innovative, multimedia concert experience. Two performances are scheduled to take place May 18-19, 2024, at the&nbsp;Dr. Bobbie Bailey and Family Performance Center in Kennesaw, Ga.


GSO Music Director and Conductor Timothy Verville will lead the orchestra and 100-plus members of the GSO Chorus as they&nbsp;perform Eric Whitacre’s composition, “Deep Field,” live to the film “Deep Field: The Impossible Magnitude of our Universe.”&nbsp;Combining stunning imagery from the Hubble Space Telescope, never-seen-before galaxy fly-bys and custom animations, the&nbsp;film creates an immersive, unforgettable journey from planet Earth to the furthest edges of our universe. Audience members&nbsp;will be encouraged to take a more active role in the piece via a free app on their mobile devices.




This unique musical program also includes Beethoven’s “Symphony No. 9.” This beloved masterpiece, written for orchestra&nbsp;and chorus, celebrates the ideals of joy, freedom and equality, and is often hailed as one of the greatest human achievements&nbsp;in music.


The winners of the GSO’s 2024 Beethoven’s 9th national vocal competition will be the featured soloists: soprano Emma&nbsp;Robertson, mezzo-soprano Tetyana Vaknovska, tenor William Green and bass/baritone Jacob Lay.
