Symphony of Northwest Arkansas Paul Haas, Music Director
Welcome to our 2021-22 Season! Dear Friends of SoNA,
We can't wait to see you again as we return to the mainstage with impactful performances for our 2021-22 Season at Walton Arts Center. In November, we open with Mozart’s sublime Clarinet Concerto featuring SoNA’s principal clarinetist Trevor Stewart, and Beethoven’s Third Symphony, the Eroica. Then we celebrate the holidays in true SoNA style with two performances of A Very SoNA Christmas in December. In January, Canadian pianist and composer Heather Schmidt makes her debut with an Arkansas premiere: her own gorgeous and dramatic Concerto No. 4, Phoenix Ascending on a program with its artistic soul mate, Sibelius’ Second Symphony. In February, we make connections across multiple continents with tabla virtuoso Sandeep Das performing the Arkansas premiere of Dinuk Wijeratne’s Tabla Concerto, along with Grażyna Bacewicz’s Overture for Orchestra, and Schumann’s Second Symphony. Finally, in a celebration of human resilience, Mahler’s majestic and awe-inspiring Sixth Symphony brings the season to a close in April. Be sure to secure your subscription now so you won’t miss a single concert. We’ll see you in November!
