The Three Phantoms — Broadway's Biggest Hits!

An evening of Broadway magic that combines the cachet of "The Phantom of the Opera" with three extraordinary performers who have played that title role, all backed by Pacific Symphony. In addition to soaring melodies from Andrew Lloyd Webber's phenomenon, the concert includes blockbusters from "Les Miserables," "Kiss Me Kate," "Man of La Mancha" and much more!

Inside In Beethoven's Ninth

Beethoven's "Ode to Joy" has thrilled listeners around the world for nearly two centuries. When it premiered in 1824, conducted by Beethoven himself, he heard not a note, so profoundly deaf was he. Nor did he hear the five standing ovations for the most epic choral work ever composed! Two iconic works by Frank Ticheli —"Rest" with Pacific Chorale and "Radiant Voices"—provide a stunning prelude.
