Due to the escalation of COVID-19 concerns, Sarasota Orchestra will cancel the remainder of concerts in our 2019-2020 season. This includes the cancellation of the Sarasota Music Festival in June.

If you have tickets to any of the cancelled performances (except for Outdoor Pops*), please fill out our Cancelled Concerts form.

In the meantime, our musicians will not be silent. We have launched an online hub of music and recorded vignettes called Music Moves Us. This initiative is intended to keep the music playing in your hearts and homes until we can come together at performances again.

*A Note for Outdoor Pops Patrons: Please visit the Orioles website for special instructions on ticket returns.

 Literally gripping the arms of my seat, I was not the only one propelled on this rollercoaster of delightful music.  

Written byHerald Tribune

 Every section and soloist within the orchestra played their role with strength and beauty; every tree proud and tall. Tali served as an excellent guide leading the forces with assured confidence. The overall sound was lush and, yes, intense just where it needed to be.

 The Sarasota Orchestra was brimming with bubbling energy...  

Written byHerald Tribune

 A lifetime of musical moments, cinematic in scope, gave every section of the orchestra a leading role at one time or another. Chief among them was the virtuosic solo of concertmaster Daniel Jordan.  

Written byHerald Tribune

 It was a thrill ride resulting in an explosion of audience enthusiasm.  

Written byThe Observer

 Andrew Lane, the Orchestra’s Principal Pops Conductor, knows how to program a winning event and this concert had something for everyone. It also brought in a whole new audience that seemed dazzled by the performances.  

Written byThe Observer

 The Sarasota Orchestra played a program this past weekend filled with so much color, it was like visiting the Louvre.  

Written byHerald Tribune

 The performance... was exceptional, bringing new and stunning sonorities from a larger than usual Sarasota Orchestra under the dynamic leadership of Anu Tali.
