Event Description

The Civic Orchestra presents the final concert of their 41st concert season at Dave Dunnet Community Theatre on Saturday, May 24th.

The Orchestra and their Music Director, Grant Harville, are thrilled to collaborate with violinist Megan Karls, performing Sibelius' Violin Concerto! The program will also feature works by Tchaikovsky, Munktell, and Canadian composer Gary Kulesha.

Come early to enjoy a pre-concert talk with Grant Harville at 1pm in the theatre and get interesting insights into the music you're about to hear!

 

Tickets are $25 general admission, $20 for seniors, $10 for students. 

Children 12 and under are free with an adult, however we ask that you select a free Children's ticket when purchasing your adult ticket so that we have an accurate seat count. Maximum children's tickets per adult is two (2). Any additional children's tickets may be purchased at the $10 student price. Thank you.

Please note that while Civic Orchestra concerts are family-friendly, most programs are not suitable for very young children. If attending with children, please seat yourself near an exit so that you may easily take your children to the lobby during a performance if they become disruptive. Please be mindful of the concert-going experience of the patrons around you; we want everyone to enjoy the show! Thank you. 

Megan Karls

Violinist Megan Karls enjoys a multi-faceted career across the American West as the Concertmaster of the Wyoming Symphony, and as a violinist with the Spokane Symphony, Boise Philharmonic and the New Mexico Philharmonic. Her musical leadership is in high demand as a frequent guest concertmaster in the region, including repeat appearances with the Billings Symphony, Bozeman Symphony, Opera Montana and the conductor-less String Orchestra of the Rockies. Her recent solo concerto performances have been with the Northwest Civic Orchestra, Milwaukee Philharmonic, and the Great Falls Symphony Orchestra, of which she is a former concertmaster.

She spends her summers performing with the Britt Festival Orchestra, as Principal Second Violin of the McCall Musicfest Orchestra, and guest teaching across the world in San Salvador, El Salvador, Tlahuitoltepec, Mexico and around the United States. She has performed in Europe with Assisi Performing Arts Festival and toured Bulgaria with Symphony Vratsa, continually melding her love of music with a love of travel.

Megan is a 2015 recipient of the Yale Distinguished Music Educator Award and in 2021 became the first woman in classical music to ever receive the Montana State Arts Council’s Artist Innovation Award. She has been an artist-in-residence with OpenAIR in Montana and at the Tongue River Artist Residency in Dayton, Wyoming. She holds degrees with honors in violin performance and political science from Lawrence University and the University of Iowa. Karls makes her home in Spokane, Washington where she enjoys hiking and exploring with her husband, David.
