Description

Two (2) Tickets to a Masterworks, Pops or Coffee Series Concert!

Their mission is to enrich the human spirit through symphonic music.

As Music Director Courtney Lewis begins his fourth season at the conductor?s podium, the Jacksonville Symphony celebrates an expanded 2018-2019 season that promises more weeks of music reaching more people than ever before.

Last year?s record attendance of 255,000 individuals is sure to be broken this season. As the concert schedule expands to 39 weeks, there are new events along more artists that will make the season shine.  The Daily?s Place Symphony Series will return, continuing the first of its kind partnership between a symphony and a NFL team.

The Jacksonville Symphony is one of Northeast Florida?s most important cultural institutions. Founded in 1949, the Symphony is ranked among the nation?s top regional orchestras.  The Symphony?s home, Robert E. Jacoby Hall, is considered to be an acoustic gem. Each year thousands enjoy the Symphony?s performances both at Jacoby Hall in the Times-Union Center for the Performing Arts and at venues located throughout Northeast Florida.

The Symphony is also the community?s leader in music education for children, serving four county school districts. In addition to offering free tickets to children under the age of 18 for selected Masterworks, and other special youth pricing, there are several programs to foster music education.  The Jacksonville Symphony Youth Orchestras, under the direction of Assistant Conductor and JSYO Principal Conductor Deanna Tham, performed in L.A.?s famous Frank Gehry-designed Walt Disney Concert Hall this June as one of just three student orchestras invited to perform in the Los Angeles International Music Festival.

Over the years the Jacksonville Symphony has hosted some of the most renowned artists of the music world including Isaac Stern, Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington, Marilyn Horne, Luciano Pavarotti, Itzhak Perlman, Kathleen Battle, Mstislav Rostopovich, Audra McDonald, Joshua Bell, Lang Lang, and Renée Fleming. This year the Symphony will host superstar cellist Alisa Weilerstein  for the January 2019 Gala.
