Spitfire: Shostakovich's Symphony No. 9 - CANCELED

IMPORTANT UPDATE
Due to the impending inclement weather, we have made the difficult decision to cancel our February 5 performance of Spitfire: Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 9 at the Tulsa Performing Arts Center.
In each of the three days prior to a Tulsa Symphony performance, our musicians rehearse together with our conductor to provide a high quality musical experience for you. The impending weather would put the safety of our musicians and the quality of our performance at risk. The safety of our local and traveling musicians is of the utmost importance, therefore we have made the very difficult decision to cancel.
Current ticket-holders to Spitfire: Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 9 will be refunded. If you would like to donate the value of your ticket to the Tulsa Symphony Orchestra please respond to this email or call our box office by Friday, February 4 by 5:00 pm. Donating your tickets helps sustain the livelihood of the organization even when Mother Nature has other plans. Tickets will be automatically refunded if we do not hear from you by the 5:00 pm deadline on Friday.
For further questions, please call our box office at (918) 584-3645 or email us at info@tulsasymphony.org.
