UGA Symphony Orchestra to open 2nd Thursday season Sept.12

The Second Thursday Scholarship Series is one of the great traditions at the university and the Hugh Hodgson School of Music, and the series is set to begin anew on Thursday Sept. 12:

The series' opening concert will feature the UGA Symphony Orchestra Sept. 12 in a performance with bass-baritone Brandon Cedel, a winner of the 2013 Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions.

The September symphony concert is one of the signal events of the new academic year and a great opener for the season to come, which includes the Holiday concert (held at the Classic center this year in Dec. 3) and in October the UGA Wind Ensemble concert will include a march by Rossini. Season tickets are very affordable and a great cultural experience each month - a terrific way to hear wonderful live music and support our students at the same time. To secure your tickets, call the PAC box office at 706-542-4400.
