Get ready to be transported! The Women's Orchestra of Arizona (WOA) kicks off its 2025-2026 season with the spectacular concert, "Picturesque." This is a performance you absolutely won't want to miss!

The afternoon begins with the playful energy of Rossini's "Barber of Seville Overture." This piece is famous for its energetic crescendo that builds excitement and anticipation, a perfect start to a magnificent afternoon.

Following this, WOA will perform "Suffolk Suite" by the renowned female composer, Doreen Carwithen. A child prodigy who began her musical training at age four, Carwithen became the first woman to be awarded a J. Arthur Rank Film Scholarship.

The winner of the most recent "Pass the Baton" drawing with lead the orchestra in a stirring arrangement of Samuel A. Ward's "America the Beautiful."

The feature of the afternoon's program will be Mussorgsky's timeless classic, "Pictures at an Exhibition," a vibrant and dramatic masterpiece that brings an entire art gallery to life through sound. Inspired by a posthumous exhibition of his friend Viktor Hartmann's art, Mussorgsky composed this suite to musically represent ten of the artworks. The famous "Promenade" theme, which recurs throughout the piece, acts as a musical depiction of a visitor walking from one painting to the next.

Concerts are just one hour long, with no intermission.
