Bradley Symphony Center

Join Festival City Symphony for a musical journey filled with sweeping grandeur and dramatic beauty. The program will begin with Felix Mendelssohn’s Hebrides Overture, a vivid and atmospheric work inspired by the composer’s visit to the remote Scottish islands. Franz Schubert’s towering Symphony in C Major, known as the “Great” for both its expansive scale and emotional depth, will close the concert. Rediscovered by Mendelssohn after Schubert’s death, this monumental symphony stands as a triumphant testament to the composer’s brilliance in his final years. Don’t miss this uplifting afternoon of music that will stir your soul and ignite your imagination!
The Saturday Classics concert series welcomes newcomers and established symphony enthusiasts alike. Held at the magnificent Bradley Symphony Center (<a href="https://maps.app.goo.gl/HgC8XUTdJ5yj9KKn7" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">212 W Wisconsin Ave in Milwaukee</a>), this concert series makes exceptional classical music accessible to all.
