Join your GPO on a symphonic journey into the history of Weld County with the world premiere of Composer-in-Residence Dylan Fixmer’s Seven Symphonic Portraits: A Weld County Reflection. Each portrait depicts a different musical journey experienced by historical, contemporary and future generations. From dreams of utopia and the search for knowledge, to struggles with hardship and indifference, this dynamic piece reflects the beauty and challenge of the human experience. Enjoy additional selections such as Hovhaness’ Mysterious Mountain and the triumphant “Jubilee” from Symphonic Sketches by Chadwick.
Elevating your experience, your ticket grants you access to a curated display by the Greeley Museums in the lobby of the Union Colony Civic Center. This preview accompanies Seven Symphonic Portraits: A Weld County Reflection. Arrive early to explore the exhibit. The full display will be available at the Greeley History Museum beginning October 19th.
