FLORIDA ORCHESTRA.org:

Do you love classical concerts?

Experience concerts every weekend in Tampa Bay, Florida!

The Florida Orchestra invites you to its Pops/MasterWorks and coffee concert series from September to May.

 


Order your season or single tickets early, choosing your location in one of the three concert halls: Fridays Tampa's Straz Center for the Arts, Saturdays St. Petersburg's Mahaffey Theater, and Sundays at Clearwater's Ruth Eckerd Hall. Under the baton of Maestro Michael Francis, associate and guest Maestros, the full-time professional orchestra performs concerts each weekend and gives added special programs during the week such as its coffee concert series, two annual free concerts in the park and special performances with guest stars. The MasterWorks concert series is free for under 18 year olds accompanying an adult. Listen to “pre-concert conversations” with the Maestro.

Tickets can be purchased online at floridaorchestra.org or ordered by phone at 727-892-3337 or in person at the box office.

Concerts begin at 7:30 p.m., parking is easy, and beverages make intermissions a pleasant time at each of the three halls in Tampa bay, Florida.

If you have never heard this wonderful orchestra before, want to get a little taste of classical music or classical Pops, you've come to the right place.

 

I can tell you from experience that we are lucky to have a full-time orchestra of this quality here in West Florida.

Call the orchestra, subscriptions or individual tickets, or just go to the box office an hour before each performance. Details online or speak to the courteous staff, all are ambassadors of your Florida Orchestra, call 727-892-3337.
