Florida Tour 2026
In March 2026, your Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra will be returning to Florida for a 4-city tour, bringing violinist Simone Porter and a spectacular program of Butterworth, Brahms, and Bruch. Our last visit in 2023 was the BPO’s first return to touring following the pandemic. We are looking forward to building on that success by adding two stops.
Audiences in West Palm Beach, Vero Beach, Gainesville and Daytona will be treated to JoAnn Falletta conducting the orchestra through an adventurous program that will share the magic of the BPO.
JoAnn Falletta, conductor
Simone Porter, violin
BUTTERWORTH The Banks of Green Willow
BRUCH Scottish Fantasy
BRAHMS Symphony No. 1 in C minor
We hope you will join us in raising the necessary funds to support the tour! A gift of any size will go a long way in helping us successfully bring the BPO to Florida audiences.
