LineUp

Ludwig van Beethoven, a German composer and pianist from Bonn, bridged the Classical and Romantic eras with his innovative, emotionally intense music. Renowned for works like the "Moonlight Sonata," Fifth Symphony, and Ninth Symphony, he revolutionized instrumental music, elevating it to high art. He continued composing despite profound deafness.
Igor Stravinsky's "The Rite of Spring," a groundbreaking 1913 ballet and orchestral work, originated in Paris. A landmark of musical Modernism, it is known for its brutal rhythms, dissonance, and Russian folk influences. Created with Sergei Diaghilev, Nicholas Roerich, and Vaslav Nijinsky, its premiere caused a historic sensation. It profoundly shaped 20th-century music.
Cellist Sterling Elliott, from Newport News, Virginia, is celebrated for his joyous musicianship and stellar stage presence. A classical artist, he earned the 2019 Sphinx Competition and 2021 Avery Fisher Career Grant. He also received the 2024 Sphinx Medal of Excellence and was named a BBC New Generation Artist. Elliott performs with major orchestras and champions new works.
A professional regional orchestra based in Dayton, Ohio, founded in 1933 and resident at the Schuster Performing Arts Center, offering a diverse range of classical, pops, and educational symphonic performances as part of the Dayton Performing Arts Alliance.
Established in 1935 by founder and first conductor Bertha Walburn Clark, the Knoxville Symphony Orchestra is the oldest continually performing symphony orchestra in the Southeast. It reaches over 200,000 people annually across East Tennessee.
