PHOENIX – The Phoenix Symphony announces the 2016/17 Season, which marks the internationally acclaimed Virginia G. Piper Music Director Tito Muñoz’ third season with the Symphony.

“The theme for the 2016/17 Season is Symphony Your Way, embodying the ability of The Phoenix Symphony to evolve and meet the needs of our changing audience,” says Jim Ward, President & CEO of The Phoenix Symphony. “From the range of our programming to our new Choose Your Own subscriptions the Symphony has something for everyone.”

New this year, enjoy the Symphony Your Way with new and improved Choose Your Own (CYO) subscriptions featuring the flexibility to pick four or more concerts to create a subscription package that fits your individual schedule, budget and taste. This includes Classics, Pops, Legends and even Special Performances. The Season also includes expanded matinee programming, a continued focus on young American composers and traditional Classics, Pops, Family, Legends and Coffee Classics programming.
