The Delta College Planetarium
On May 13, 2023 enjoy live music by a special consort of musicians from the Saginaw Bay Symphony Orchestra set to unique immersive animation in the planetarium’s Dome360 Theatre. This one-of-a-kind experience features a string quintet led by Gregg Powell, Principal Bassist and Personnel Manager for the Symphony. Selections include “Mars, the Bringer of War” by Gustav Holst, “Symphony #41: Jupiter” by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, “Twilight: New Moon” by Alexandre Desplat, and “Song Under The Stars” by Elena Roussanova Lucas, all visually choreographed to vibrant visual effects, from spacescapes to surrealistic environments.
This exclusive event plays one day only on Saturday, May 13 with performances at 4:30 and 6:30 p.m. Tickets are $20 per seat. Due to the nature of the live performance in a small venue, the experience is not recommended for children under 12. Because of limited seating, pre-reservation is highly recommended at www.delta.edu/planetarium.
Thank you to our sponsors for this event, Dow Credit Union, Serra Chevrolet, and the Listening Room.
