Founded in 1940, the Utah Symphony is one of America’s major symphony orchestras, known internationally for its distinctive performances and recording legacy. Today, the orchestra’s 85 full-time professional musicians perform over 175 concerts each season.

GENTRI is the special guest performer this year and is comprised of three highly trained tenors. Their music can be described as “Cinematic Pop,” with lush, epic orchestrations and rich three-part harmonies. This will be their first performance with the Utah Symphony.
