Be there for Maestro Markus Poschner’s first-ever performance in Ogden—an unforgettable evening with the Utah Symphony that pairs two powerful works of beauty, sorrow, and soul. This is more than just a concert—it’s a moment. And you’re invited.
Tchaikovsky’s final work, the Pathétique Symphony, is a masterclass in emotion—stormy, tender, and aching with shifting speeds and keys—and that’s just the first movement. From the opening notes, it’s clear this is a lament, though the composer never reveals what—or who—he’s grieving. Originally titled The Passionate Symphony in Russian, every moment rings true to the name. Balancing that intensity is Fauré’s Requiem—a luminous, meditative work that feels like a soft exhale. More comfort than drama, this beloved piece washes over you with its gentle melodies and peaceful spirit.
