$12 for Two Tickets to Austin Civic Orchestra’s Classical Pops Concert at St. Martin’s Lutheran Church on September 17 at 7:30 p.m. (Up to $24 Value)
Live music unites people from all walks of life, unlike silence, which only unites librarians and people who crack safes. Bond over shared sound waves with today’s GrouponLive deal: for $12, you get two general-admission tickets to see to see the Austin Civic Orchestra’s classical pops concert at St. Martin’s Lutheran Church on Saturday, September 17, at 7:30 p.m. (up to a $24 value). Guided by the skillful baton of music director Lois Ferrari , the nationally recognized Austin Civic Orchestra tickles ears with classic and modern works performed by a volunteer, community-based ensemble. The classical pops concert brings listeners such time-tested favorites as Strauss’s “Thus Spoke Zarathustra,” Wagner’s “Ride of the Valkyries,” and Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony, filling concertgoers’ minds with memorable melodies and dreams of being a Looney Tune. Music from Harry Potter leavens proceedings before Southwestern University music professor Eri Lee Lam showcases her skills in Bartok’s Rhapsody for Violin and Orchestra no. 2, bringing nimble fingers and lightning-fast bowing to the Hungarian-folk-dance-inspired piece. The concert will take place in the capacious St. Martin’s Lutheran Church, with high ceilings giving quarter notes plenty of space to resonate and play games of Red Rover before finding their way to ears.

$12 for Two Tickets to the Austin Civic Orchestra’s Spring Concert (Up to $24 Value)
Like cheese, classical music is best enjoyed when in string form. Snack on the sounds of cultured compositions with today’s Groupon: for $12, you get two tickets to the Spring Concert performed by the Austin Civic Orchestra at St. Martin’s Lutheran Church (up to a $24 value). The concert takes place on Saturday, May 14 at 7:30 p.m. The talented volunteer-based Austin Civic Orchestra has perked ears since its inception 34 years ago and has been recognized as a semifinalist for the 2010 American Prize , which is given to the top civic orchestras in the country. The stringed set list will fuse favorite rhythms and harmonies with Rachmanninov’s Symphony no. 2 in E minor and Mozart’s Sinfonia Concertante in Eb major and the sound onslaught features the regal reed action of guest artists from the Southwestern University Woodwind Quartet. After articulating the works of wig-wearing classical composers, the Austin Civic Orchestra will conclude the evening with Stephen Kaminski’s Ten Emotions: A Tone Poem, runner up from the 2009 Composition Contest, finishing ahead of a piece entitled Ten Faces I Can Make While Playing the Xylophone. This performance features open seating, so groups of song scientists and chord chemists should plan to arrive early for the best seating selection.
