2024 Masterpiece Series Season

Dynamic and engaging performances continue at the New West Symphony! Our exciting 29^th season includes the dazzling exploits of Cirque de la Symphonie, feats of human skill synchronized to live symphonic masterpieces.  We celebrate the 100^th anniversary of George Gershwin’s popular Rhapsody in Blue and Ottorino Respighi’s spectacular Pines of Rome. The world premiere of a New West Symphony commissioned work by Los Angeles favorite Derrick Skye continues the Symphony’s commissioning program. Familiar favorites in the new season include works of Mendelssohn, Dvořák and Brahms.
