Love blossoms when Donna and Tommeet at the local gym. But navigating a new relationship is never easy.

The tale of Peter and the Wolf comes alive onstage in this beloved symphonic fairy tale! Join us in this not-to-be missed performance featuring orchestra, guest narrator, and the Heartland Ballet. Wagner’s “Siegfried Idyll”, named for his first child and written as a surprise gift to his wife, was first played in their home as she woke up on her birthday. As such, it reflects a rarely heard, more intimate side of the composer. In honor of the 50th anniversary of the Dubuque Symphony Youth Orchestra (DSYO), the Youth Orchestra will join the professional musicians in a side-by-side performance of Beethoven’s “Egmont Overture”. And Beethoven’s youthful “Second Symphony”, is thrilling way to begin our year-long celebration of the 250th anniversary of the composer’s birth. Your Connections Club price is just $40 for prime seating.
