Imagine a warm summer evening in the mountains, the air filled with the unmistakable melodies of Paul Simon—“The Sound of Silence,” “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” “Cecilia.” Now imagine those songs lifted to new heights by the lush sound of the Utah Symphony led by Maestro Ted Sperling, with extraordinary singers Morgan James and Chester Gregory.
From his iconic work with Simon & Garfunkel to the vibrant rhythms of Graceland and Rhythm of the Saints, this concert is a journey through one of America’s most poetic and enduring songbooks. Come for the music you love. Leave with a summer memory you won’t forget.
Mozart and Salieri—these two composers are forever linked by myth, rivalry, and masterful music. Come hear some of the best of both, including Mozart’s playful Figaro Overture and his elegant Symphony No. 38 “Prague,” named after the city where Mozart debuted the work in 1787. But don’t dismiss Salieri—he and Mozart were both 18th century rock stars, vying for audiences and royal commissions alike.
More than 200 years later, Salieri may not be as well known (except for that alleged poisoning incident – thanks, Hollywood!), but his refined works, like Prima la musica poi le parole, dazzled audiences of the day. We pair these two composers together and leave you to decide—Mozart vs. Salieri—who would you choose?

Beethoven’s Symphony No. 1 bursts onto the scene with youthful energy, classical elegance, and a few mischievous surprises—because even a musical revolutionary has to start somewhere.

The program also features Arvo Pärt’s whimsically titled Wenn Bach Bienen gezüchtet hätte (“If Bach Had Been a Beekeeper”), a buzzing, hypnotic play on the letters B-A-C-H—an homage to the composer’s name rather than his era. Last performed by the Utah Symphony at St. Mary’s in 2019, it offers a witty nod to Baroque lineage with Pärt’s minimalist touch.
