The Schwartz Center for Performing Arts at Emory University has announced their concert series for the upcoming 2024-2025 season.

Highlights of the Candler Concert Series include a return of violinist Sarah Chang, the Atlanta premiere of a new project from Silkroad Ensemble with Rhiannon Giddens, the Zurich Chamber Orchestra with Daniel Hope, a collaboration with Imani Winds and Boston Brass, and a recital from world-renowned flutist Emmanuel Pahud of the Berlin Philharmonic.

“The Candler Concert Series is the hallmark of the programming at the Schwartz Center,” said Rachael Brightwell, managing director. “It is such a privilege to bring these visiting artists to campus to engage with our students and perform in the intimate and acoustically stunning setting of Emerson Concert Hall. We are inspired by this lineup of artists who are joining us for the 2024-2025 season, and we hope the exceptional programs they have created will inspire our audiences as well.”

The Schwartz Center will also be bringing renowned artists to Emory’s campus through the Schwartz Artist-in-Residence program, including contemporary music ensemble PUBLIQuartet with their newest program, Rhythm Nation, and the time-honored tradition of Emory Jazz Fest with the Gary Motley Trio.

The nine-concert subscription ticket package and build-your-own ticket package are available to order now with selections from the Candler Concert Series and Schwartz Artist-in-Residence Program. Single tickets to all concerts go on sale Thursday, August 1. For more information visit schwartz.emory.edu or call 404.727.5050.
