Welcome!

This month’s lineup at the Charlotte Symphony is a wonderful reflection of what makes live music so powerful — it meets us where we are. Whether you’re looking for a romantic evening with Schumann’s Piano Concerto on Valentine’s weekend, a lively escape to the rhythms of Havana Nights, a chance to explore the sounds of Charlotte with your family at Our Musical Neighborhood, or a laidback evening with friends at the final On Tap of the season, there’s something for everyone in February.

At the end of the month, we take a bold step into new territory at Blume Studios with Become Ocean, a breathtaking immersive experience presented in collaboration with Blumenthal Arts, the Knight Foundation, and the N.C. Aquarium Society. With 360-degree sound that ebbs and flows and lighting that shimmers like sunlight on the surface of the water, this performance will make you feel as though you’re submerged in the vast expanse of the ocean. It’s an opportunity to experience John Luther Adams’s Pulitzer Prizewinning work in a completely new and innovative way.

Each of these performances is a reminder of the many ways music connects us — whether by sparking emotion, celebrating our city’s unique soundscape, or offering new perspectives on the world around us. However you choose to experience the Symphony this month, we’re grateful to share it with you.
