According to a Sept. 18 news release, Conductor Gary Liebst will direct the symphony for the second year. Liebst joined the CSO for its 25th anniversary season in August 2022 after retiring from teaching and administrative work, he said previously.
The 2023-24 season includes four concerts, all of which will be matinee concerts beginning at 2:30 p.m.
- Oct. 21: "With a Latin Flair" features Latin jazz singer Ermelinda Cuellar.
- Dec. 16: "The Season to be Jolly" features vocal soloist Cody Arthur.
- Feb. 17: "Rodeo Roundup" will feature Western TV and movie themes.
- April 13: "Space: The Final Frontier" will feature an out-of-the-world performance.
"The staff at First Methodist Church has welcomed us with open arms, and it is interesting to note that the church has a long history of supporting the arts in Conroe and Montgomery County," Liebst said in the release. "I have picked a spectacular variety of different styles, and the audience will get to enjoy some familiar classical melodies, great music from Broadway, some classic Latin-influenced hits as well as some enduring Western themes from our history.”
