Join us at Blue Cross Arena on Sunday April 7, the day before the 2024 eclipse (Monday, April 8), when the arena transforms into a space-themed spectacle for an out-of-this-world experience!

Led by Music Director Andreas Delfs and Principal Pops Conductor Jeff Tyzik, the orchestra performs amid a giant screen displaying vivid space visuals. Cutting-edge lighting and effects will accompany Rochester City Ballet dancers, Troupe Vertigo aerialists, and a 150-member choir.

The concert showcases eclipse-inspired music, including movie music masterpieces from 2001: A Space Odyssey, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Alien, and Star Wars: Episode 1 – The Phantom Menace, Gustav Holst’s planetary pieces, and a new composition written especially for the concert by Jeff Tyzik. The show kicks off with Richard Strauss’ iconic Sunrise from Also Sprach Zarathustra.
