Gifts of Tribute and Honor

2020-21 Tribute Concert
RAVEL and THE POWER of BLACK MUSIC
Live online:  27 MARCH 2021 at 7:30pm EDT

The annual Louisville Orchestra Tribute Concert is presented online this season as we continue our Virtual Edition performances. We extend our gratitude to all those who contributed tribute gifts in support of this concert, as well as to those who made tribute gifts throughout the past year. Gifts made to the Louisville Orchestra in honor or in memory of others are a special way to support the orchestra and celebrate friends and family.

Your gifts made it possible for the music to keep playing this season despite the loss of some ticketing revenue. On behalf of Music Director Teddy Abrams and everyone at the Louisville Orchestra, we express our heartfelt gratitude and our best wishes for your health and safety.

These names* will also be listed in the online credits of our Tribute Concert: Ravel and the Power of Black Music featuring Teddy Abrams as soloist in the Piano Concerto by Maurice Ravel. The performance is also a tribute to Black composers and musicians whose talents influenced every facet of music in America. We hope you join us for the performance. LINK to details.
