The Chattanooga Symphony & Opera has a busy November schedule, kicking off with a Volkswagen Series concert of Classical's Greatest Hits. Music Director Kayoko Dan, with help from audience members via a survey, has selected some of the best and most popular classical works, including the Overture to William Tell, a movement from Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, Strauss' On the Beautiful Blue Danube, the first movement of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony and more. Tickets are only $25 for adults, $15 for kids and students.
The CSO will then host a free Veteran's Day concert on November 11 at Memorial Auditorium. This annual event is conducted by Music Director Kayoko Dan and features several patriotic tunes, including the Armed Forces Salute.
The Barnett & Company Masterworks Series continues with two of Mozart's larger works, opening with his 38th symphony. The CSO Chorus and UTC Chamber Singers plus soloists join the orchestra for the monumental Requiem on the second half.
