CONCERT WEEK COUNTDOWN DAY TWO!
In case you (somehow) missed it, COSMIC is celebrating its 30th season, starting this weekend with our “Birthday Bash” concert! But did you know that in its earlier days, people weren’t quite sure what COSMIC even was? From the mystical sounding name, some even believed we were an organization of palm readers! 🔮
Don’t miss this weekend’s celebratory season opener, directed by Will Esterling, who will not be dressed as a palm reader. This concert is FREE! Details at www.cosmicsymphony.org/october-concerts/ 🎶
🚨ATTENTION : FIRST CONCERT WEEK COUNTDOWN OF THE SEASON INCOMING!🚨
Johannes Brahms was a bit of a prankster. In 1880, the University of Breslau awarded him an honorary doctorate. When Brahms was advised by a friend that the thank you note he sent was not sufficient enough to express his appreciation, he composed “Academic Festival Overture” to convey his gratitude. However, the inspiration for the piece was not exactly “academic” – the Overture is actually based on several drinking songs popular with the students at the time! Cheers! 🍻
You can hear this piece and several others at our SEASON OPENER this weekend! This concert is FREE! Details at www.cosmicsymphony.org/october-concerts/
