usic moves us all. We can soar away on the notes of a melody to different times and faraway places. Music has the power to transport, transform, transfix, and even translate emotion. In choosing this year’s theme for the Symphony Society’s Cabaret fundraiser, event CoChair JoAnn Frick says she selected “Music of the Night” because of her love for Phantom of the Opera and its music. It also appealed because it harkened back to the early days of the Coastal Symphony of Georgia when their major fundraiser was a cozy gathering with that same name. EIL decided to draw on that idea of nostalgia we all feel for beloved musicals and the songs that stay with us. On these pages, in addition to JoAnn’s choice of Phantom of the Opera, you’ll find favorite Broadway musicals chosen by members of the Symphony Society, Coastal Symphony of Georgia as well as from EIL staffers. No matter what the music performed at Cabaret, we’re sure it will be wonderful, beautiful, and some enchanted evening!
