An upcoming performance of the PEI Symphony Orchestra (PEISO) will feature Dr. Dale Sorensen, principal trombonist for the orchestra and an assistant professor of brass at UPEI. The PEISO will perform Antonín Dvorák’s popular Symphony No. 9 in E Minor, better known as his New World Symphony, on November 21 at 2:30 pm, at the Confederation Centre of the Arts.

In addition to the New World Symphony, the program also includes Dvorák’s Carnival Overture and the seldom-played Trombone Concerto in C by Italian film composer Nino Rota.

Under the direction of Maestro Mark Shapiro, the PEISO’s 54th season is chock-full of thrilling masterworks and world-class guest performers, taking place entirely in the Confederation Centre’s Mainstage Theatre. 

Season subscriptions and single-show tickets are available at the Confederation Centre Box Office. Subscribers gain access to the lowest available pricing, invitations to members-only events, and guaranteed seating should a show sell out. Visit www.confederationcentre.com or www.peisymphony.com for more information. All PEISO events are subject to current PEI CPHO advisories and restrictions.
