4 | encore ASO | IN TUNE Dear Friends, It has been a true joy to welcome you back to Symphony Hall to enjoy the sounds of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra together again. In addition to our Delta Classical Series concerts, we are delighted to see you return for many of our other series as well. Delta Atlanta Symphony Hall LIVE has a full calendar this year, featuring the ASO on stage with Chris Botti, Gloria Gaynor, Ben Folds, Indigo Girls, in addition to concerts without orchestra including Celtic Thunder, Leslie Odom Jr., Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis and many more. The team has created a season filled with wonderful diversity and variety. View the full calendar of events at aso. org/LIVE. If you haven't checked it out yet, I highly recommend experiencing Movies in Concert with the ASO, featuring favorite movies displayed on a 40-ft screen in Symphony Hall while the Orchestra performs the film score live on stage. We welcome the series back to Symphony Hall this month with Marvel’s Black Panther and Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. See more favorites this season including Home Alone, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire™ and Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. Come see and hear these great movies bursting with lush sound on a huge screen! View the full calendar at aso.org/movies. As our Talent Development Program and Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra students return to regular, in-person instruction, we also look forward to seeing them perform live again. On November 20, the Talent Development Program Musicale returns to Symphony Hall. Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra Music Director Jerry Hou will lead the ensemble for its Overture Concert on November 6, Crescendo Concert on February 27 and Finale Concert on May 14. Stay tuned for additional programming for the whole family in 2022. More information at aso.org/education. Lastly, we celebrate American Archives Month this October with a look back at the beginnings of the ASO archives, and the dedicated music lover that brought the project to life. Turn to page XX 14 to learn more about ASO Archivist Bob Scarr and the journey to preserve the ASO’s legacy. Thank you for your continued love and support of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. Warm gratitude,
Jennifer Barlament Executive Director
