Welcome Ludovic Morlot

We are happy to welcome Ludovic Morlot to the Seattle Symphony. This recent article in the Seattle Times is very interesting, especially how it begins: 

"Before the interview even gets started, Seattle Symphony director Ludovic Morlot has a question: Why does The Seattle Times, like some other newspapers, group its classical-music coverage with its dance, theater and other fine-arts coverage? Shouldn't it be in with the jazz, rock, folk and hip-hop?

After all, it is music."

The full article, Ludovic Morlot issues wide-open invitation to concertgoers written by Michael Upchurch can be read by clicking HERE.

September 17th is the Gala opening concert for the Symphony's 2012 series. Tickets are still available. From the Symphony's website, the evening includes:

Beethoven: Consecration of the House Overture 
Gulda: Concerto for Cello and Wind Orchestra
Gershwin: An American in Paris
Ravel: Boléro

Ludovic Morlot takes the stage in his first concert as Music Director in a program that nods to his French roots, and features a Seattle favorite: star cellist Joshua Roman. Welcome the Maestro with us. Special-purchase Gala tickets including cocktails, dinner, dancing and champagne intermission are available. Call the Special Events Department at 206.215.4868 to reserve Gala tickets.
