Looking to put on a concert? Here are some sample programs of various genres. We love both the traditional classical repertoire and modern music from movies, video games, and anime. We can put together a custom program that is tailored to your audience and venue, as well as contract the musicians. We can do anything from piano soloists to full orchestra.

  • Innocence Lost

    This program explores the tragic loss of creativity we often experience as we get older. It starts with Bernstein's musical wink at the ambiguities of the best and worst of all possible worlds. Then, Hisaishi's iconic music from Spirited Away moves us from childhood to adulthood. Shostakovich's hauntingly beautiful but tragically devastating 5th symphony concludes the program.

    Overture to Candide - Leonard Bernstein
    Spirited Away Suite - Joe Hisaishi
    Symphony no. 5 - Dmitri Shostakovich

  • Silence in This Sacred Space

    This program is reserved for venues that evoke a silent wonder. Originally for the incredible acoustics of the First Presbyterian Church in McAllen, Texas, this program invites listeners to wonder and marvel at their inner spirituality. Williams' Fantasia was written for the Gloucester Cathedral in London and includes a smaller second orchestra to evoke the timeless and ethereal sounds of an organ. Then, Yoshimatsu's gorgeously haunting piece evokes a funeral for a fallen comrade. Barber's Adagio, with its ponderous warmth, urges us to reach ever higher. Finally, Copland's iconic Appalachian Spring, reminds of the beauty of the day and of life itself.

    Fantasia on a Theme of Thomas Tallis - Ralph Vaughn Williams
    And Birds Are Still - Takashi Yoshimatsu
    Adagio for Strings - Samuel Barber
    Appalachian Spring - Aaron Copland

  • Old Friends and New Hellos

    This program begins with the virtually unknown piece by Max Brauer, which explores different moods of the Greek god Pan. It is a whimsically playful piece. The second half features Dvorak's well-loved and audience favorite wind serenade. With its gorgeous melodies and dark harmonies (amplified with cello and string bass), it is music that fills the soul. For a small wind ensemble.
