Toledo Symphony | Pictures at an Exhibition

Saturday, September 16, 2023 | 8 p.m.

The Toledo Symphony opens its 80th anniversary season with a world premiere by Barbara Assiginaak – an Odawa First Nations composer – that celebrates the largest public mural in North America, the Glass City River Wall. An uncompromising artist as both a jazz and classical musician, Branford Marsalis performs Gabriel Prokofiev’s Saxophone Concerto, a modern concerto of our time that connects to the tradition of the orchestral repertoire.
