Gil Shaham Plays Tchaikovsky
Presented by Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra at Music Hall Cincinnati, OH
Conductor Kwamé Ryan returns for a program of passion, virtuosity and expansive Romantic expression. Legendary violinist Gil Shaham showcases his expressive brilliance in Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto, a perfect example of the interplay between soloists and orchestra — at times in opposition to each other but always in sync. While 200 years apart, Schubert’s Ninth Symphony and Carlos Simon’s Fate Now Conquers are influenced by Beethoven’s musical legacy (including some direct quotes!). Their individual statements attest to concepts of the Romantic — vast canvases of sound, sweeping melodies and heart-pounding climaxes. This project is supported by the generosity of tens of thousands of contributors to the annual ArtsWave Campaign, the Cincinnati region's primary source for arts funding.

Clutch: US Fall Tour
Presented by The Andrew J Brady Music Center at The Andrew J Brady Music Center Cincinnati, OH
Hard rock icons CLUTCH has announced their US Fall 2026 tour that includes a performance at The Andrew J Brady Music Center® on Saturday, October 31. Support for the show includes Slomosa and Blood Vulture. ABOUT CLUTCH CLUTCH shares more in common with The Grateful Dead, Rush, and the Allman Brothers than their heavy riffs and heady twists-of-phrase might suggest. Because like those bands, the supporters who adore CLUTCH are there for the experience, community, and authentic connection. To love CLUTCH is to feel a sense of ownership, membership, and belonging. Seneca Valley High School classmates Neil Fallon (vocals), Tim Sult (guitar), Dan Maines (bass), and Jean-Paul Gaster (drums) share an unshakeable musical and personal bond now three decades strong. Shaped by the same region which birthed Bad Brains, Minor Threat, and Rites Of Spring, CLUTCH crafts hyper-literate and libertine jams informed by hardcore fury and fuzzy, athletic, stoner rock. A worldwide cabal of fans and critics cherish the band’s dense and diverse catalog of underground classics, released through major labels, indies, and since 2009, Clutch’s own Weathermaker imprint. Sunrise On Slaughter Beach, the band’s thirteenth studio album, is a slamming summary of everything that makes the band great and another giant leap forward into career longevity. “There’s no question that Clutch etched themselves a name in the pantheon of great rock bands,” Lambgoat wrote in 2004. Classic Rock Magazine counted 2013’s Earth Rocker and 2015’s Psychic Warfare among the 50 Best Rock Albums of the 2010s. Rolling Stone described…
