The 2009-2010 season will explore the seas by way of a symphony voyage entitled "Set Sail with the Symphony".  The orchestra hoists the Jolly Roger October 2009 for a “Skull and Crossbones” opening concert featuring Bellini’s Overture to Il Pirata, music from Gilbert and Sullivan's The Pirates of Penzance, and Hans Zimmer's rousing score from the hit motion picture Pirates of the Caribbean.  Subsequent performances will offer Debussy's La Mer, Mendelssohn's Hebrides Overture, Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade, Beethoven's Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage, Britten's Four Sea Interludes, and many more masterworks inspired by the sea.  The year's pops concerts will include the fifth edition of the popular  “Movie Score Quiz" (featuring movies with nautical themes, of course) and a "Broadway at Sea" program with music from Anything Goes, On the Town, Dames at Sea, The Unsinkable Molly Brown, and South Pacific.
