The Gateway Chamber Orchestra (GCO) is pleased to present its 2017-18 Season, Celebrating the Past, Embracing the Future, which kicks off in Franklin, Tenn. with their “Classically Modern” concert on Monday, Sept. 18 at the Franklin Theatre. 
The new season launches with the familiar voice of a Haydn symphony written for his time in London. Young American composer Timo Andres provides a soothing glimpse at an eclectic artist. A trio of talented and emerging singers joins the orchestra for Stravinsky’s neoclassical masterpiece.

Gateway Chamber Orchestra Music Director Gregory Wolynec says, “We could not be more excited about the 2017-18 season. Along with works and composers that we have become known for, including symphonies and serenades by Haydn and Mozart, we will present beautiful works for chamber orchestra by Stravinsky, Strauss and Sibelius where composers breathed fresh life into older music and ideas.”
