The Fort Collins Symphony presents an Evening of Boo-tiful Music
You are invited to usher in the season of Halloween with a spooky and spellbinding music performance by your Fort Collins Symphony (FCS). Maestro Wes Kenney and the FCS musicians will work their magic at the Spellbound Halloween concert at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, October 18 at the Fort Collins Lincoln Center. This frighteningly fun concert for all ages features contemporary and classical Halloween favorites. Members of Fort Collins Comic Con, Fort Collins Ghost Tours, and Fort Collins Ghostbusters will be on hand to provide extra chills, thrills, and photo ops.
Spellbound, the second annual FCS Halloween pops concert includes music that ranges from Ghostbusters, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Phantom of the Opera, The Witches of Eastwick, and the Monster Mash to the classical favorites of Mussorgsky’s Night on Bald Mountain, Saint-Saëns’ Danse Macabre, Dukas’ The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, J. S. Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D Minor (think scary organ music), and more! The FCS is joined by ghost storyteller Shane Sheridan and vocalists Patty Goble, Nicole Asel, and John Lindsey.
A special treat: the premiere of The Raven, the FCS newly commissioned work by Colorado composer Morgan Denney based on Edgar Allan Poe’s iconic poem.
So, join us (if you dare!) for a magical and spooktacular evening of Halloween favorites. Costumes are encouraged – just remember to leave any weapons at home!
