BRAHMS Symphony No.3
VAUGHAN WILLIAMS Toward the Unknown Region
RUTTER Gloria

Brahm's emotional reflections ignited this beautiful 3rd Symphony whose movements seem to be "of one piece, one beat of the heart."  No need to think, simply be, as we yield to the pull and undertow of these emotionally sweeping pieces.  With the voices of the 2016 High School Choral Consortium guiding the way, we'll journey Toward the Unknown Region, an English work inspired by the American Walt Whitman poem Darest thou now O Soul, where All waits undream'd of in that region, that inaccessible land.  Our 100-voice choral assembly of high school students from Duxbury, Marshfield, Pembroke, Plymouth, Scituate and Silver Lake Regional combine to catapult our joyous finale.  Bursting with resounding energy, Rutter's Gloria exalts and lifts the musical spirit until it soars!

Finding Jane Goodwin Austin A 19th-Century Novelist's Legacy on Burial Hill

Date: April 2, 2016

Local guide Joyce Poremski offers an intriguing view of once famous 19th-century novelist, Jane Goodwin Austin, who fictionalized the histories of Plymouth families including the Standishes and the LeBarons.

Finding Jane Goodwin Austin is part of Burial Hill: History in Progress, a free program that will continue through the year 2020. Launched independently in 2011 by the Plymouth Antiquarian Society, the Burial Hill series is now a collaborative program with the Pilgrim Society & Pilgrim Hall Museum. Each year, we will present a series of history expeditions on Burial Hill, one of America's oldest and most significant burying grounds. Tours will be offered on the first Saturday of every month at 1 pm (excepting January); meet at the top of the Hill.

No reservations are required for individuals and families. Participants may traverse steep and slippery slopes; please wear appropriate shoes. Severe weather may cancel tour; updates will be posted on the Plymouth Antiquarian Society Facebook page.

Support The Phil

Please support The Phil and our mission to connect community through music.

The Phil has been serving our community through live performances and outreach programs, demonstrating how music and the arts can have a lasting effect on those we serve.  Programs like the orchestra's in-school Instrument Immersion program and the High School Choral Consortium Concert provide potentially life-altering experiences for hundreds of young people.  Since ticket revenues cover a small portion of concert costs, let alone a full season, we need your help.  Significant support from the greater community is the only way to continue offering excellent music and music outreach programs.

Giving is easy!  Secure online giving is available in addition to mail, phone and in person donations.  Check out the support opportunities below to see which one is right for you.
