Dear Friends,
It gives me a great pleasure to invite you to the 29th season of your Riverside Symphonia!
The two major symphonic productions that we prepared for you include both works that are very familiar and universally admired (particularly at the Christmas Concert), as well as works rarely heard but deserving to be better known. Those little-known musical pearls will be primarily presented during our program titled "Symphonia is a Woman".
