Announcing the Sammamish Symphony's 24th Season!

The New Season is Coming! The Sammamish Symphony unveils the 2015/2016 Concert Season.

In its 24th concert season, the Sammamish Symphony Orchestra, the premier symphony orchestra on the Eastside, is presenting five exciting programs for the 2015-2016 Season. Performances this year will be at Meydenbauer Theatre in Bellevue and Eastlake Performing Arts Center in Sammamish. Season highlights include guest performances by Violinist Jae-In Shin during the October 23rd and 25th, 2015 concert Expanded Horizons. And Brent Hages as soloist on Oboe performing on April 29th and May 1st, 2016, as part of The Driving Force of All Nature concert.

“In planning the Sammamish Symphony’s 2015-16 season, I had several things in mind: the best music possible, of course; works that the orchestra hadn’t played in a long while, if ever; a healthy mixture of repertoire cornerstones and unfamiliar delights. Almost unconsciously, the season’s shape became one steeped in some of nature’s inevitabilities -- water, the coming of Spring, wanderlust, and (courtesy of Danish composer Carl Nielsen) the link between music and life itself. Overused though the expression may be, I genuinely believe that every concert will hold ‘something for everyone’.” Adam Stern, Sammamish Symphony Orchestra Interim Conductor

Additional concerts presented this season include:
