From Reading Symphony Orchestra
The Reading Symphony Orchestra (RSO), under the baton of Music Director Andrew Constantine, proudly opens its 2025-26 season with one of the most profound masterpieces in all of classical music: Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9. The performance takes place on Saturday, Sept. 27, at 7:30 p.m., at the Santander Performing Arts Center.
A Grand Chorus of Voices and Vision
The concert will feature a world-class quartet of vocal soloists:
- Christina Pier, Soprano
- Abigail Nims, Mezzo-Soprano
- Charles Reid, Tenor
- Michael Dean, Bass-Baritone
- Reading Choral Society
RSO joins forces with the Reading Choral Society to bring Beethoven’s visionary “Ode to Joy” finale to life in a musical celebration of unity, hope, and the triumph of the human spirit.
“Few works in the orchestral repertoire deliver the kind of emotional power that Beethoven’s Ninth does. It’s both a call to humanity and a musical beacon of joy. We are thrilled to share this with our community,” said Music Director Andrew Constantine.
