The concert begins at 7:30 p.m. at the Palace Theatre.
Ma will perform Elgar’s Cello Concerto alongside Dvorak’s Serenade For Strings, Wagner’s Prelude to Die Meistersinger and a world premiere performance by American composer Conor Brown.
Under Miller, the orchestra has won 30 ASCAP Awards for adventurous and innovative concert programming and a 2014 Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Album. It has received a “world-class orchestra” label by National Public Radio.
