Guest Conductor
Susana Lalama
Concert Info:
Please note: much like the Nutcracker later this season, we are performing along with dancers who have been practicing/training with pre-recorded music. Accordingly, we will attempt to adhere to those renditions so that we may synchronize better and use our rehearsal time more effectively. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the tempos in the recordings (below) prior to the first rehearsal.

Sheet Music
For the 2021-2022 season, the Spartanburg Philharmonic will be posting the music folders as PDF downloads rather than mailing folders of printed sheet music. We will then provide high-quality, large printouts or originals at the first rehearsal. Please select your part below to open and download your music.
Musicians may also pick up their physical folders before the first rehearsal at the Spartanburg Philharmonic offices (during regular office hours). For special circumstances, please contact us ASAP so that we can get the music to you in a timely manner.

Parking & Map
When arriving at the Equestrian Center, turn down the central/main driveway (gravel) to enter. See picture below. [Note, there will not be a gate with keypad entry. If you find yourself at a closed/locked gate, you are on the wrong road.] Parking is available in the lots and grass areas beyond the main buildings.
