Mesmerizing Classics

The BPO is celebrating 20 years of JoAnn Falletta with an unforgettable collection of masterworks, premieres and mesmerizing performances in our M&T Bank Classics series, featuring some of JoAnn’s favorite artists and works: Mozart’s Requiem, Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream in collaboration with the Irish Classical Theatre Company, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2, and more.

Unforgettable Pops

Maestro John Morris Russell has packed the 19-20 BPO Pops Series with experiences you won’t find anywhere else: the BPO debut of Tony Award-winning star of Broadway’s Hamilton Leslie Odom, Jr., the 50th anniversary of The Beatles’ Abbey Road and Yellow Submarine, an homage to past Principal Pops Conductor Marvin Hamlisch, and so much more!

Head-banging Rock

The 19-20 BPO Rocks season brings you a wide variety of rock legends–tributes to Queen, The Beatles, The Eagles, and The Grateful Dead, and the actual legendary group Jefferson Starship, all with classic anthems, head-banging hits, and your BPO!

Fun for Kids

The 19-20 BlueCross BlueShield of Western New York’s BPO Kids Concert Series returns for young music lovers and the entire family. These fun Sunday afternoon concerts last 45 minutes, with an hour of preconcert activity stations including crafts, stories, games, and an “instrument zoo” where kids can try out various instruments from the orchestra.
