It’s an evening chock-full of the most popular, recognizable, and critically acclaimed film scores, such as the themes from the adventurous and majestic Star Wars, the intensely moving Schindler’s List, and heroic Saving Private Ryan.

It’s the jubilant opening night of the 2024-2025 Masterworks Season, during which audiences can expect no less than 13 Masterworks programs, including Preludes, Mozart to Matisse, as well as Sunday matinees and the popular Friday Coffee Dress events.

It’s a golden opportunity to indulge in the magical gifts music bring — to be transported to a different world, and experience the joy of music radiating through the Columbus Symphony Orchestra’s home, the wonderful 2,791-seat Ohio Theatre, Columbus — a venue that intertwines historic charm, unique Spanish-Baroque architecture, and a rich legacy of hosting some of the world’s best artists. With seats spread over four levels — the orchestra floor, the loge, balcony, and mezzanine — there are seats suitable to every taste and budget, providing ultimate comfort and an exceptional experience.

It’s all of this, presented by the only professional orchestra in Ohio since the 1970s, with as many as 90 musicians — some of the world’s best. The Bulgarian-born Rossen Milanov is highly regarded as a conductor, with a significant national and international presence. His myriad of experience includes conducting many noteworthy orchestras such as the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Symphony Orchestra of the Bulgarian National Radio Symphony Orchestra; conducting operatic performances such as the Komische Oper Berlin for Shostakovich’s Lady MacBeth of Mtsensk and the Philadelphia Orchestra for Puccini’s La Bohème; multiple collaborations with world-renowned musicians such as Yo-Yo Ma, Itzhak Perlman, and Joshua Bell; ballet choreographers Mats Ek and Sabrina Matthews; and conducting premieres by Richard Danielpour, Gabriel Prokofiev, and Nicholas Maw.

Bring your friends and family and enjoy an exceptional night at the symphony — one that will stay with you for many years to come!
