Cambridge Symphony Orchestra makes 20th year celebration tour stop in Paris on October 27th

MEDIA RELEASE – The Cambridge Symphony Orchestra (CSO) is gearing up to celebrate 20 years in the community and part of that celebration includes a stop in Paris. The CSO will perform a concert in Paris at St. Paul's Church, 48 Broadway St. West on Sunday October 27th at 3 p m The concert in Paris will be a Masterworks concert and will include the Overture to Der Freischütz by C. M. von Weber, Concerto for Two Violins in D minor, BWV 104 by J. S. Bach featuring Concert Master Joy Schuster, and Assistant Concert Master Kristi Coleman-Dorland. The concert will conclude with Dvořák's popular Symphony No. 9, "From the New World." It promises to be a great concert in a beautiful venue. Tickets are available through their website cambridgeorchestr a.ca and also at the door. According to a press release shared with the Paris Independent this week, they are especially excited to perform in Paris as part of their community outreach efforts and are hoping to offer more outreach concerts in the future.

The CSO has gained great momentum over the years under the leadership of their Music Director Sabatino Vacca, with musicians coming from quite a radius outside of Cambridge As the orchestra has grown and developed, they have expanded their repertoire and types of programming they are able to offer the public. Along with a growing orchestra their audiences have also been growing. Their concerts are often filled to capacity as they seek to make orchestral music readily accessible to all as they strive to build community through the power of music.

They opened the season with a Beatles tribute concert in September and will conclude their 20th Anniversary season with a concert dedicated to the music from the world of film on May 29, 2025, at Tapestry Hall in Cambridge.
