Program Description

Event Details

Associate Conductor Adam Stern brings fresh and entertaining insight to the music and composers featured in the three orchestra programs. These noontime events provide an opportunity for interactive discussions that help everyone learn about the artists, the musical world and other related topics.

Adam Stern has been leading the Seattle Philharmonic Orchestra since 2003. During his tenure he has brought several Northwest and West Coast premieres to the Puget Sound community. Stern’s unique programming combines beloved masterworks with must-hear rarities; programs presented by the Seattle Philharmonic are not merely concerts, but true musical events.
