November Arts Events

November 6 | Levity

With violin virtuoso Tessa Lark as our guest, Daniel Cho leads the Alabama Symphony Orchestra in a program that balances celebration with substance. Jessie Montgomery’s Starburst opens with a burst of energy — a short, propulsive work that has become one of the most-performed pieces by a living American composer. Come watch this performance at the Alys Stephens Center in Birmingham!


November 19 | Ying Quartet

The Grammy Award-winning Ying Quartet is coming to the Gogue Performing Arts Center! The Ying Quartet is celebrated for their expressive performances and visionary approach to chamber music.

For more than three decades, the ensemble has appeared in leading concert halls around the world while championing music’s role in community life through performances in schools, workplaces and prisons.


November 20 - 22 | The Neil Diamond Musical

Created in collaboration with Neil Diamond himself, A BEAUTIFUL NOISE is the uplifting true story of how a kid from Brooklyn became a chart-busting, show-stopping American rock icon.

With 120 million albums sold, a catalogue of classics like “America,” “Forever in Blue Jeans,” and “Sweet Caroline,” an induction into the Songwriters and Rock and Roll Halls of Fame, a Grammy® Lifetime Achievement Award, and sold-out concerts around the world that made him bigger than Elvis, Neil Diamond’s story was made to shine on Broadway-and head out on the road across America.
