Mid-Atlantic Symphony

From Baltimore's Peabody Conservatory to the National Symphony Orchestra, Mary Howe helped shape American classical music.

A pioneering composer with deep connections to our region, Howe studied composition at Peabody under Gustav Strube, the founding conductor of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. She later helped establish the National Symphony Orchestra in Washington, D.C., in 1931.

Yet despite her remarkable contributions, her own music is rarely heard today.

This November, it's time to rediscover Mary Howe.

The Mid-Atlantic Symphony Orchestra brings Howe's colorful and imaginative Sand, Stars, and Whimsy back into the spotlight, alongside two beloved masterpieces: Schubert's Symphony No. 5 and Beethoven's Symphony No. 8.

With performances in Easton on November 5, Rehoboth Beach on November 7, and Ocean Pines on November 8, audiences across the Delmarva Peninsula will have the opportunity to discover a remarkable musical legacy with roots right here in our region.
