Barry * St Joseph, MO
"When they all played -- the cellos, the trumpets, clarinets, oboes and everyone else -- it was like magic happened on that stage. Going here, running there, quieting down to a whisper. It was wonderful. And you know who was doing it? People. People, just like us."

Every piece they chose was sheer beauty. It was a lovely and passionate afternoon.

IT'S THE FINAL CONCERT OF OUR SEASON AND WE ARE CELEBRATING THE TALENT OF OUR CITY! Renowned classical guitarist and St. Joseph native Anthony Glise takes the stage with the Saint Joseph Symphony in the Midwestern Premiere of his Concerto for Guitar and Orchestra, The Globe Rooms. Splitting his time between St. Joe and France of late, we honor his adopted home country with the balance of the program comprised of the music of celebrated French composers. Indulge in the elegance and charm of France with the enchanting soundscape of Debussy, the passion of Bizet’s Carmen, and Ravel's mesmerizing and iconic Boléro. This concert will transport you from the pride of St. Joe straight to the heart of France as our orchestra performs Anthony’s intricate concerto alongside iconic works that evoke the magic, romance, and flair of French culture. Whether you're a longtime admirer of Anthony’s or new to his talent and fame, this evening promises to be an unforgettable celebration of artistry. Don’t miss out—get your tickets now for an evening of pride and enchantment! Vive la musique!
