The 21/22 Philharmonic Series welcomes Andreas Delfs as the 13th Music Director of the RPO! Under Maestro Delfs’ baton, the RPO embarks on a journey committed to presenting new and more diverse voices, better reflecting the rich cultural tapestry of our community. The Philharmonics Series presents world premieres by two of today’s most exciting composers, Jessie Montgomery and Roberto Sierra, as well as RPO premieres of works by Gabriela Lena Frank, Jennifer Higdon, Brian Nabors, and Sarah Kirkland Snider, among others.
Curated by Principal Pops Conductor Jeff Tyzik, who will celebrate his 28th Season with the RPO in 21/22, the Pops Series includes the music of pop legends, from Paul Simon to Marvin Gaye. We celebrate the legendary John Williams’ 90th birthday, an evening with platinum-selling songwriter Ann Hampton Callaway, and bring back to the stage some of Broadway’s greatest hits! And, of course, films enjoyed by audiences of all ages as their hit scores are played live!
