POSTS STORIES REELS
Every great culture rests on its art. Introducing Pillars of the Arts, our 2026–27 season. Inspired by the core pillars of The Orchestra San Antonio, this season explores the foundations that shape our work. Performance and collaboration bring musicians, artists, and educators together through singular experiences on and off the stage. The season opens with the World Premiere of “La Minerva” by composer Juan Pablo Contreras, performed by soloist Anna Lee. As part of our Chamber Connexions series, Andrés Cárdenes — one of the major violinist-pedagogues of his generation — joins The Orchestra San Antonio's artist faculty onstage, showcasing the faculty's talent as both educators and performing artists. Closing the season, composer Daniel Freiberg returns to San Antonio to explore folk traditions and their connection to orchestral music. Thank you to our presenting sponsor @frostbank for supporting our mission to make performances and music education accessible to all.

We kicked off our concert season with The Orchestra San Antonio’s Chamber Connexions for a beautiful evening of "An Intimate Beginning." We were honored to share the evening with soprano Sarah Shafer, pianist Liza Stepanova, violists John Largess and Matthew Cohen, violinist Itamar Zorman, and cellist Nicholas Canellakis. Under the vision of Brendan Speltz, Chamber Connexions Director of Artistic Programming, their artistry was brought together on stage to create an atmosphere of warmth and connection in the Carlos Alvarez Studio Theater. We can’t wait for what’s ahead and to bring chamber music to the San Antonio community, creating unique concert experiences and more opportunities to come together. 📸 @scarcliff by @theorchestrasa
