SUMMARY:Elkhart County Symphony - Planetary Finale
DESCRIPTION:Get Elkhart County Symphony Tickets\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nPlanetary Finale – May 16\, 2027\nSeason 79 concludes with its most expansive and imaginative program: Planetary Finale\, a concert exploring wonder\, creation\, rhythm\, and the limitless possibilities of human imagination. \nThe evening opens with a bold contemporary collaboration featuring acclaimed percussion ensemble pax duo—Tristan Swihart and Micah Detweiler—whose innovative and theatrical approach to percussion performance brings a striking modern energy to the season finale. \nKnown for blending classical music with elements of indie\, hip-hop\, funk\, electronics\, and multimedia performance\, pax duo has strong ties to Goshen through Detweiler’s role on the Goshen College music faculty and the ensemble’s work hosting the Midwest Chamber Percussion Camp on campus. Their creative\, genre-crossing approach has earned them recognition throughout the Midwest and made them a vibrant part of the region’s artistic community. \nThe program also includes Gustav Holst’s towering masterpiece\, The Planets. One of the most ambitious and influential orchestral works in the symphonic repertoire\, The Planets remains a staggering achievement of musical storytelling\, transporting audiences through cosmic landscapes of war\, peace\, joy\, aging\, mystery\, and transcendence. Enhanced by visual and astronomy-inspired elements\, the performance invites audiences into a sweeping sensory journey through both outer space and human imagination itself. \nFor Dr. Soo Han\, the relationship between music and the cosmos feels deeply connected. \n“The connection between space and music is tangible\,” he said. “Music and space are connected through the vastness of possibilities and the unknown—new creations\, wonderment\, vehicles to inspire exploration and odysseys. It is a celebration of human senses and imagination.” \nFollowing the grandeur and scale of Holst’s celestial masterpiece\, the season concludes with the sparkling joy of Zequinha Abreu’s Tico-Tico\, a lively and celebratory finale that sends audiences into the Symphony’s landmark 80th season with exhilaration\, energy\, and optimism—the perfect final flourish to Stories & Sound: Prelude to 80. \nRepertoire Highlights\n\nThe Elkhart County Symphony and pax duo — selected works\nHolst — The Planets\n\nMars\, the Bringer of War\nVenus\, the Bringer of Peace\nJupiter\, the Bringer of Jollity\nSaturn\, the Bringer of Old Age\n\n\nZequinha Abreu — Tico-Tico\n\n\n			\n				Get Elkhart County Symphony Tickets
