Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra: Romeo and Juliet & Beethoven's Triple

Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra: Romeo and Juliet & Beethoven's Triple at Hilbert Circle Theatre

Beethoven’s Triple Concerto gives three soloists room to answer one another before the program turns toward theatrical drama. On May 22, 2027, the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra brings Romeo and Juliet & Beethoven's Triple to Hilbert Circle Theatre in Indianapolis, with Jun Märkl on the podium and a program built around contrast, color and big feeling. If you want an evening that feels like an event and not just background music, start here.

The heart of the night is Beethoven's Triple Concerto, and the soloists are the draw. Pianist Alexandra Dariescu, ISO concertmaster Kevin Lin and principal cellist Austin Huntington step forward together. Three instruments. Three musical personalities. One shared conversation with the orchestra behind them. Seeing that unfold live lets you watch the give-and-take happen in real time, and that is something a recording can never quite hand you. For anyone who loves hearing the orchestra's own musicians in the spotlight, it is a compelling reason to go.

Then comes drama. The published program also lists excerpts from Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet, ballet music with story and tension built right into it, along with Kenji Bunch's Symphony No. 1 (Lichtenstein Triptych). Repertoire is announced and subject to change, but the plan is a rich, varied evening with real emotional range. Make it your Saturday night out, share it with someone who loves a great performance, and pick your seats for the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra at Hilbert Circle Theatre today.
