Join the Northwest Indiana Symphony Orchestra and Music Director/Conductor Kirk Muspratt for their 83rd Season!
The 2024-25 season kicks off with a night of Broadway music with two performances October 24 & 25 at 7:30pm. The Symphony will be joined by the Symphony Chorus as well as guest singers Alisa Jordheim, Kimberly E. Jones, Lorenzo Parnell, and Jonathan Wilson. The concert will feature favorite tunes from classic musicals like Sound of Music, Oklahoma, South Pacific, and The Music Man, and contemporary musicals like Mamma Mia!, A Chorus Line, Chicago, Les Miserables, and Phantom of the Opera, plus many more!
The beloved Holiday Pops, a South Shore Holiday Tradition, will have two performances in two special locations. Bring your friends and family to our new venue, the Hard Rock Casino of Northern Indiana, where you can enjoy an array of dining and cocktail options. This show will be for ages 21 and over only. Our all-ages family show will be on December 7 at Valparaiso High School. Both shows will be at 7:30pm.
On March 21, at 7:30pm, art, literature and music meet in Musical Masterpieces which will feature Mussorgsky’s virtuoso suite Pictures at an Exhibition, Weber’s Oberon Overture based on Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and our own principal trombonist Thomas Stark playing the contemporary Bourgeois Trombone Concerto.
