from the president

AS WE CONCLUDE yet another remarkable concert season , I ’ m excited to reflect on our collective musical journey . This season has been a celebration of diverse talent , our very own musicians , up-andcoming stars , complementary artistic genres , and the unifying power of music . We should all be proud of the Baltimore Symphony ’ s achievements under the leadership of new Music Director Jonathon Heyward . Jonathon ’ s inaugural season was full of captivating performances that offered a thrilling glimpse into the future !
