The SUNY New Paltz Orchestra, under director Christiana Fortune-Reader, presents a compelling program that highlights both classical masterworks and emerging talent. The evening will include selections from Joseph Haydn and Dmitri Shostakovich, as well as performances by the winners of the 2025 SUNY New Paltz Student Concerto Competition and a collaboration with the SUNY New Paltz Community Chorale. From Haydn’s clarity and charm to the emotional depth of Shostakovich’s orchestral writing, this program offers a rich musical journey.
