Greensboro Symphony Orchestra Tickets

Had not been to the Greensboro Symphony since the Fuchs era. I dropped my season membership in that era. Wow how things have changed! Only went because I'm obsessed with all of Beethoven's music I thought I'd give it another try. Christopher Dragon has given the symphony a new life and wonderful new energy. He has apparently boundless energy which is now in the symphony too. I am excited to renew my membership.

My critique is for the Tanger Center. We have been numerous times for theatrical plays as well as symphonic performances. When it comes to orchestras and symphonies, the sound is buried, and not clear at all. They need to install or have created for them an Orchestra shell of some sort to help send the sound out to the audience. The performance, however, of Mozarts Requiem was absolutely phenomenal. All of the artists were incredibly impressive ... stunning vocalists, stunning orchestra! So grateful we got to see this performance.

I think all of the performers did a marvelous job and seemingly worked very well together. The soloists gave solid performances, and the symphony, as always, was wonderful. My personal preference for orchestra music tends to be more toward the old Boston Pops style, with classical favorites, especially ones that are up-tempo in nature. I was not that familiar with The Requiem by Mozart and was hoping for a more up-tempo and "lively"Mozart arrangement. I remain supportive of the Greensboro Symphony and the variety of music it brings to our area.

The music was performed beautifully and strongly. There were a few times when the chorus sang so strongly that I could not hear the orchestra. Another person, a musician, said the opposite: there were times when the orchestra drowned out the chorus. All in all, magnificnt music vey well presented.

First time seeing new director, Christopher Dragon conduct the full orchestra. He is an exhuberant conductor, who captivates the audience as well as the musicians he’s conducting. The selection of works for the evening was uplifting and the guest violinist was a joy.

This is a well developed ensemble, with a dynamic conductor who takes the time to introduce the works. The violin soloist was particularly powerful, as well as the members of the orchestra.

It was a lovely evening with beautiful music. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire performance

The musicians are very good at what they do as well as the conductor. I was very pleased and will go again. Only thing I noticed is towards the end everyone got a little sleepy.

I absolutely loved it. The arrangements they did of Areatha Franklins music was amazing.

Amazing talent and a beautiful evening. Thanks for honoring the Queen of Soul.
