The cheers may still be echoing in the Seifert Performing Arts Center after The Phil's sold-out Holiday Pops concerts, but the orchestra is not resting. Preparations are underway for the February 1st and 2nd "Winter Idylls" concert, featuring Anton Bruckner's powerful 4th Symphony, "The Romantic". The Phil will be performing the 1878 version of the symphony, which graphically depicts "A Knight's Tale", the 19th century romanticizing of noble knights, majestic castles, magical forests, hunting scenes, and soaring mountain peaks from days gone by.

The Phil is nearly doubling the size of its violin section, and adding more French horns and trumpets to ensure that the power of this masterpiece is realized in these performances. This is the largest collection of musicians The Phil has assembled for a concert, so don't miss this opportunity to hear music you would normally need to go to Boston, New York, or Philadelphia to experience. All this in the comfort of the Seifert Performing Arts Center in Salem, NH.
