Philly, you felt like home. ❤️
Performing Everything I Know: Mandy Gonzalez Sings Lin-Manuel Miranda with @thephillypops under the baton of Christopher Dragon was truly something special—one of those nights that stays with you.
This show brings so many people together, and that’s what makes it so meaningful. It’s also a reminder that when you have a dream, you have to go for it!
The biggest gift was sharing it all with my husband, my daughter, and so many dear friends in the audience. Those moments mean everything.
And as if that wasn’t enough… ending the night surrounded by family at Victor Cafe, listening to the most beautiful opera, felt like pure magic.
So much gratitude for the music, the memories, and the people who make it all worthwhile. 💫

We are thrilled to announce that Resident Conductor @dragonconducts has signed a new five-year contract, beginning with the 2026/27 season. The agreement extends a partnership that has become a defining force in our artistic identity 🌟
Since joining the Colorado Symphony in 2015, Dragon has become one of the most sought-after conductors in the field. His ability to bridge traditional symphonic repertoire with popular music, film, and cross-genre projects has made him an indispensable artistic voice for the Colorado Symphony and a rising star in the orchestral world.
👏 Join us in celebrating this incredible partnership, and be sure to come experience Dragon's vibrant energy on the podium this weekend, Feb 20-22, as he conducts Rachmaninoff and Shostakovich!

Days 2-3🎙️
We took the @radiocitymusichall stage for rehearsal and two sold-out shows with the one-and-only @gregoryalanisakov and @dragonconducts .
It was incredibly special to share our long-time Isakov collaboration with New York City – not once, but TWICE – on this historic tour. Thank you to everyone who came out to experience these two glorious nights with us ... we couldn’t have asked for a better Colorado Symphony debut at Radio City Music Hall!

Some moments make you pause and look around the hall.
This was one of them.
Sharing the stage with our Music Director, choirs, guest artists, and incredible musicians for two shows of A Philly Holiday Spectacular, we realized we’re part of something truly special.
Standing in that hall, it was clear: this music only happens because we build it together.
