Open Rehearsal with the Columbus Symphony Orchestra

The Columbus Symphony Orchestra is pleased to offer a free, family-friendly Open Rehearsal at 12:30pm on Saturday, January 31 at RiverCenter for the Performing Arts. The orchestra will be rehearsing the music for their concert "Appalachian Spring" to be performed later that evening. The length of the rehearsal is subject to the needs of the orchestra and may end slightly early.

Kernis | Musica Celestis

Poulenc | Concerto for Two Pianos in D Minor*

Copland | Appalachian Spring

*Duo Amadeae: Esther Park & Sun-A Park, pianos

During the rehearsals, the performance hall doors are open and the house lights are on to create an informal setting that is welcoming to all!

We encourage attendance from all members of the community, including those who are unable to attend the evening concert or are interested in a “behind-the-scenes” look into the ensemble.

Open Rehearsals are a GREAT way to introduce young children to a live musical experience. In this informal and all-inclusive atmosphere, audience members are given the option of “paying what they want” by providing a donation or attending for free. You set the price!
