We are excited to announce a special project that will showcase the orchestra’s artistic excellence, both locally and abroad. This season the CSO will be recording two works written by Charleston composer, Edward Hart; Under an Indigo Sky, a violin concerto featuring Yuriy Bekker, and a newly-commissioned world-premiere, A Charleston Concerto for String Quartet and Orchestra, featuring the renowned Shanghai Quartet.

These works will be recorded live during the Masterworks season premiere and finale weekends, with additional patch sessions scheduled around the performances. We are thrilled to have the unique opportunity to produce a commercial recording of music celebrating Charleston that will be available for future world-wide release. This project is especially important as we commemorate the City of Charleston’s 350th Anniversary.

We believe this recording will serve to significantly elevate the reputation of the Charleston Symphony beyond the Lowcountry. Benefits of supporting this project at the levels below include recognition as a sponsor on the CD booklet, an invitation to the CD Release Party, special events, receptions with the artists, and more.
