The Columbia University Orchestra is thrilled to welcome audiences back to their first public performance off-campus in over two years. This performance marks the Orchestra’s fourth concert at Alice Tully Hall and their first appearance back in five years. The program will begin with the introduction to Modest Mussorgsky’s opera Khovanshchina, “Dawn on the Moscow River,” led by Assistant Conductor Emily Praetorius. Maestro Jeffrey Milarsky continues the program with the 1919 version of Igor Stravinsky’s The Firebird Suite. After a brief intermission, the orchestra will perform Dvořák’s Symphony No. 8 in G Major. The concert will be free of charge for those with a Columbia University ID card and $5 for the general public at the Alice Tully Hall Box Office.
