Masterworks Series

Our signature concert series, Masterworks, are classical performances conducted by Maestro Radu Paponiu featuring a full symphony orchestra and world-renowned guest artists.

One hour prior to each Masterworks concert, patrons are invited to attend conductor and guest artist led pre-concert lectures. These lectures, which include Q&A opportunities, enhance our patrons’ concert experience by providing insight into the pieces being performed.

To subscribe to the Masterworks Series, give us a call at 239.418.1500 or send an email to tickets@swflso.org.
