“This season we celebrate the richness of human stories through music—tales of adventure and whimsy, illustrations of American landscapes, and journeys of refuge and triumph. Each concert offers a timeless narrative that speaks to our humanity, told to us through music by composers who dared to dream that such a thing was possible. Our 2025-2026 season invites you to embark on this musical odyssey, where every performance is a reflection of history, culture, and the boundless imagination of the human spirit.”
On July 4, 2026, our nation will commemorate and celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The journey toward this historic milestone is an opportunity to pause and reflect on our nation’s past, honor the contributions of all Americans, and look ahead toward the future we want to create for the next generation and beyond.
The second half of our season, beginning in 2026 with our concert “Voices of a Nation,” the Spartanburg Philharmonic reflects on our place within the rich tapestry of American music and culture, by exploring these themes within our Zimmerli Series performances into the 2026 - 2027 season.
