Starting in May 2020, we started posting a number of videos. The Carson City Symphony and its associated ensembles had been entertaining people in the Carson City area for 36 seasons. Because we could not perform live, in person, we started producing a series of video episodes to showcase the talents of our local artists, ensembles, and guest artists. These episodes, called Project Euterpe ("you-TER-pee"), include excerpts from past concerts, some solo and small ensemble performances, and previews of things to come. We may include some master classes taught by our guest soloists.

You can view these videos through our new Symphony Association Video Page at http://ccsymphony.com/ccsymvideos.htm. We also have a link on the left side menu on this page.

We have set up a YouTube Channel where you can see information on all our episodes. The channel is at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVti_Ih_3sSvQcC_jaljuYw.

Project Euterpe is named for the muse of music in Greek mythology. She and her eight sisters, the other muses, lived on Mt. Olympus and entertained their father Zeus and the other Olympian gods with their artistry. Symphony Conductor David Bugli said, "Euterpe was known by ancient poets as the 'Giver of delight,' and ancient Greek musicians would call on her aid in composing their lyric poetry and music. So, we are calling on her aid to help us communicate with our audience."

Joyful Noise - A Holiday Treat Concert - Dec. 13
Available on YouTube on 12/15/2020

It's a Holiday Treat for all - a feast of seasonal and holiday entertainment in many styles! The Carson City Symphony Association presented the "Joyful Noise - A Holiday Treat" concert on Sunday, December 13, 2020, in the Bob Boldrick Theater at the Carson City Community Center. The Symphony had wanted to present an entertaining, live holiday concert, as we have for the past 36 years, but there was a pandemic going on! Since we could not fill the stage with dozens of instrumental musicians, singers, and dancers this holiday season, we were excited to collaborate and bring the holiday spirit to the community in a different format, consistent with distancing protocols.

The "Joyful Noise - A Holiday Treat" concert, featured John and Cherie Shipley with their Joyful Noise Chorus and Band. John and Cherie have been performing "Joyful Noise" concerts each December since 2002. The concert was designed to be presented as a live-streamed event without an in-person audience.
