The University of Southern Indiana will host the Evansville Philharmonic Orchestra for its 90th-season preview concert at 5 p.m. Thursday, September 12 in the USI Performance Center. The concert is open to the campus community and public at no charge.

“I’m thrilled to have the Philharmonic here on campus this Fall. No city where I’ve ever lived has loved and embraced its philharmonic as much as Evansville,” says Dr. Del Doughty, Dean of USI’s College of Liberal Arts. “I hope that our young people here will see that at the performance and get behind the music.”

Over its 90-year history, the Evansville Philharmonic Orchestra continues to grow as one of the finest regional orchestras of its kind in the country, reaching thousands of audience members young and old.

“As we embark upon our 90th anniversary season, I am thrilled to present our very first season preview concert at USI,” says Roger Kalia, Music Director. “We will perform various highlights from our season on this concert with music by Dvorák, Tchaikovsky, Michael Jackson, and John Williams, among others. I look forward to future collaborations with USI, and I hope that you will all join us for this very special event.”
