Poway Symphony Orchestra
John LoPiccolo, Music Director and Conductor
Welcome to the Poway Symphony Orchestra
We’re excited to let you know that tickets are now on sale for “Classical Gems,” the final concert of our 20th Anniversary season. We hope you can join us on Sunday, May 26, 2024, at 4:00 p.m. at the Poway Center for Performing Arts.
The concert offers a program of musical “gems,” with moods ranging from dark and dramatic to brilliant and joyous.
We’re thrilled to feature noted pianist Ching-Ming Cheng as soloist for the delightful Piano Concerto in A minor, Op 54 by Robert Schumann. Dr. Cheng, an award-winning music professor at California State University San Marcos, has performed as soloist with numerous ensembles nationally and internationally.
The concert, under the direction of John LoPiccolo, music director and conductor for PSO, will also include the witty and upbeat Overture to “Marriage of Figaro” by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Symphony 104 in D major, known as “The London Symphony,” by Franz Joseph Haydn.

The Orchestra Invites Musicians to Join
The Poway Symphony Orchestra provides great opportunities for qualified musicians to perform in concerts at the highest quality. We welcome musicians of all ages and walks of life to enjoy the experience of making music. Our literature ranges from Classical, Romantic to Contemporary music. The orchestra is looking to expand in numbers and we are especially interested in strengthening the orchestra with additional string players in all string sections.
