48th Season in 2024-2025: Awaken to the SSO's 48th Season! The SSO’s 48th
 season opening concert is mostly about waking up in one way or another. Bach’s
 very famous “Sleepers Awake” cantata is a fitting introduction to the concert,
 while Haydn’s famous “Surprise” Symphony has the wake-up chord in the second
 movement! The waltz from Tchaikovsky’s famous Sleeping Beauty ballet is also
 a proper addition, as is the fabulous orchestral suite from John Williams’ Star Wars: The Force Awakens. The same composer’s lovely theme from Angela’s Ashes is sandwiched
 between the Tchaikovsky waltz and Star Wars! Johann
Sebastian Bach, arranged by Eugene Ormandy - "Sleepers
Awake" (Chorale Prelude) Franz Josef
Haydn - Symphony
No. 94 "Surprise" Pater
Tchaikovsky - Waltz
from Sleeping Beauty John Williams - Theme
from Angela’s Ashes John Williams - Suite from Star Wars: The Force Awakens (Star Wars Episode VII) March of the Resistance Rey’s Theme Scherzo for X-Wings The Jedi Steps and Finale The lobby opens at 6:45 pm for patrons to enjoy concessions from Coffee Coffee and local artist and author vendors.
