The Central Iowa Symphony bring their season to a close with an array of magical music, guaranteed to dazzle and delight. While Mussorgsky’s Night on Bald Mountain conjures up scenes of madness and fear, Dukas Sorcerer’s Apprentice is all about zany fantasy and frantic antics. Of course, no program about sorcery is complete without a touch of music from Mozart’s beloved Magic Flute. Rounding out the fun, our featured soloist, Kevin Judge, shows off his wizardry on the “clown of the orchestra,” the bassoon.
KHOI is honored to showcase the award-winning high school and college musicians across Iowa as they share their extraordinary gift with our community. All ticket sales proceeds will support KHOI music programming in the air.
