A Celebration 250 Years in the Making

Our 2026–27 season opens with a program that spans continents, centuries, and art forms…and somehow makes it all feel like one. From a symphonic setting of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s words to the irresistible pulse of John Adams at his most playful, Undivided is a celebration of what we build when we build together.

This is also a historic Colorado evening: the world premiere of John Heins’ Garden of the Gods marks both the 250th anniversary of the United States and the 150th anniversary of Colorado statehood: a reminder that our shared story is still being written.
