Asheville Symphony opens its 2025-2026 season with Symphony in the Park, presented on Sunday August 31, at 7 p.m., at Pack Square Park. This beloved, free concert\u2014part of the family-friendly Boomtown FestAVL\u2014will feature guest artists, a range of favorite music and an introduction to the Symphony\u2019s new first concertmaster.<\/p>\n

\u201cSymphony in the Park is our biggest concert of the year, drawing thousands to Pack Square for a spectacular concert,\u201d says Darko Butorac, Asheville Symphony music director. \u201cThis year is special because we welcome our new concertmaster, Brian Allen. He is an outstanding violinist, and the audience will have a chance to hear him solo in the concert.\u201d<\/p>\n

Allen currently serves as Principal Second Violinist of the Hilton Head Symphony Orchestra, and recently held a one-year contract with the St. Louis Symphony. He holds a Doctorate in Violin Performance from the University of Michigan, where he studied with David Halen. Allen earned his bachelor\u2019s and master\u2019s degrees from the Cleveland Institute of Music, studying with Jaime Laredo and William Preucil.<\/p>\n

Special guest artists for Symphony in the Park are acclaimed soprano Elizabeth Baldwin, winner of the 2024 American Traditions Vocal Competition, and GRAMMY-winning hip-hop artist Secret Agent 23 Skidoo (a.k.a. Cactus Skidoo), an Asheville performer whose The Big Secret Family Festival raises money for local organizations doing good and who has collaborated with the Symphony on a multimedia elementary school curriculum and two albums, including Mozartistic in 2017.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis will be the first time I\u2019ve performed live with the Asheville Symphony Orchestra, the only previous gig having been cancelled by a freak snow storm,\u201d says Skidoo. \u201cWhile producing the songs with the Symphony at Echo Mountain Studio, I was mesmerized by the potent potion concocted by mixing the funk, rhythm and lyricism of hip-hop with the depth, richness and harmonic power of the symphony orchestra, and I bet the crowd will be moved as well! One of the pieces we will be performing combines a composition by Johann Sebastian Bach with one of the stories from One Thousand and One Nights, connecting the crowd to a thread that goes back in time over 1,100 years, reaching back to two different continents.\u201d<\/p>\n

The annual Symphony in the Park concerts often draw crowds of more than 10,000 people, furthering the Symphony\u2019s mission of building connections throughout the community and bringing performances to those who may not have attended a symphony concert before. \u201cMy goal for the Asheville Symphony is to remain one of the most welcoming and accessible arts organizations in our community,\u201d says Asheville Symphony executive director Daniel Crupi. \u201cWhether that\u2019s through our strong music education programs, scholarships for Asheville Symphony Youth Orchestra students, free Masterworks tickets for first responders and community groups, or through our biggest community event of the year, Symphony in the Park, accessibility is at the heart of what we do.\u201d<\/p>\n
