Kicking off 2026 and the “Festival of American Voices,” this concert presents a vivid survey of American classical music, highlighting voices from different cultural backgrounds. From the rhythmic energy of Chokfi’ by Chickasaw composer Jerod Tate to Florence Price’s evocative Mississippi River Suite, which weaves together spirituals into symphonic form, the program reflects the richness of American heritage. Aaron Copland’s Four Dance Episodes from Rodeo, with its iconic “Hoe-Down,” captures the spirit of the American West, while a new work by composer Peter B. Kay adds a fresh local perspective. Together, these pieces create a musical patchwork celebrating the diversity and depth of American artistry. Presented by the Spartanburg Philharmonic.

From the haunting sounds of “Breathe” to the timeless “Time” and the profound “Money,” this is your chance to hear The Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety, performed live in its original form. With meticulous attention to detail and a passion for perfection, The Black Jacket Symphony delivers an immersive, one-of-a-kind tribute to Pink Floyd that will leave you awestruck.
