Detroit Symphony Orchestra - Mendelssohn and Schumann
About this event
The Detroit Symphony Orchestra performs works by Mendelssohn and Schumann.
What to Expect
- 1.Arrive early to park downtown and locate Orchestra Hall at 3711 Woodward Ave; give yourself about 20–30 minutes for tickets, security, and finding your seat.
- 2.Orchestra Hall is a seated, upscale venue, so dress smart-casual and keep conversations quiet during the performance.
- 3.If you can, skim the program notes or listen for cues in Mendelssohn’s lyricism and Schumann’s Romantic intensity so you catch motifs as they happen.
- 4.Take advantage of the intermission for a quick bathroom break or a bite at nearby concessions; plan to be back a few minutes before the second act.
- 5.Clap at the end of pieces and bow-worthy moments, and keep phones silenced and out of view so you’re not distracting the hall.
- 6.
