First Timer's First Timer's Guide Guide

What is the difference between a symphony, an orchestra, and a philharmonic?

The short answer is: NOTHING! Among the top tier orchestras, in the U.S., are the New York Philharmonic, the Cleveland Orchestra, and the Chicago Symphony

The word “orchestra” defines a group of musicians performing a concert. “Symphony” means harmony. “Philharmonic” is the love of harmony. Orchestras may choose their names based on how it sounds with their city or state name, or to differentiate it from other orchestras in the same city or area.

How long are the performances?

Most concerts last approximately 2 hours, including a 15 minute intermission. Any significant exceptions to this time frame will be noted on the individual concert page on our website. Each performance is divided into two parts, with an intermission in the middle

When should I clap?

Generally, you clap only after a piece of music is completed. For example, if you’re listening to Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 5, which has four movements, it is generally considered appropriate to only clap after the last movement. You can look at your program book to find out how many movements a piece has. Usually, there is a short pause between movements. Although, sometimes there is no discernible gap If you’re unsure, you’ll know the piece is over when Maestro Confessore turns around to face the audience. However, even though the norm is to remain quiet between movements, if you are moved to display your appreciation after a particularly exciting movement, feel free to clap away!

How many musicians are on stage?

Typically, there are approximately 65 musicians on stage. The number of musicians required depends on the piece being performed. At times, we’ve had a smaller orchestra and, at other times, we’ve had as many as 100 musicians on stage.

Will I recognize any of the music?

You’ll probably recognize far more than you would imagine Many of today’s popular songs, television shows and movies use classical themes, including the “Lone Ranger” theme (Rossini’s William Tell Overture), the Bugs Bunny cartoon “What’s Opera, Doc?” (Wagner’s Ride of the Valkyries) and Billy Joel’s “This Night” (Beethoven’s Pathétique Piano Sonata), to name a few.

What kind of accommodations does the King Center provide for patrons with disabilities and impairments?

The King Center offers a variety of accommodations for guests with ADA requirements. Please speak to an usher for more information.
