Discovery Concert
The Symphony’s Discovery Concert annually provides over 1,000 elementary, middle, and high school students, including homeschoolers, with opportunities to experience a free live symphonic performance. Past Discovery Concerts have included Symphony of Illusions featuring master illusionist Michael Grandinetti, Holst’s The Planets with NASA video and images, and American’s Wonders, a 3D celebration of our nations parks and cities.
The 2024-25 Discovery Concert will take place on Friday, November 8, 2024, at 10:00 am at the historic Miller Theater. This season’s concert will feature Disney World Epcot’s Mariachi Cobre, an 11-piece ensemble playing alongside the Augusta Symphony. As ambassadors for Mariachi music, Mariachi Cobre musicians will not only keep learners engaged in the music experience, but also increase their knowledge and understanding of this unique style of folk music.
