Join us for Music in Color: From Canvas to Sound: Pictures Reimagined, an evening of sweeping melodies, vivid orchestral color, and music that sparks the imagination. Experience Sibelius’ powerful Finlandia, Palmgren’s lyrical Piano Concerto No. 2, “The River,” and Mussorgsky’s iconic Pictures at an Exhibition as the Bakersfield Symphony Orchestra brings three extraordinary musical worlds to life.

Guest pianist Anastasiya Poff joins the Symphony for Palmgren’s flowing and expressive concerto before the evening culminates with Pictures at an Exhibition, a work inspired by visual art and filled with unforgettable characters, scenes, and orchestral color. From the shimmering movement of The River to the grandeur of Mussorgsky’s musical gallery, Music in Color invites you to experience just how powerfully music can inspire what we see, feel, and imagine.
