2021-22 New World Symphony Subscription Packages
Our 2021-22 season will be a grand reunion—18 months in the making. It will also be a celebration of diverse voices and emphasize NWS’s commitment to an inclusive future for classical music. Among favorite works by Beethoven, Mahler, Brahms, Tchaikovsky and Gershwin, the season includes NWS composer debuts by Anna Clyne, Julius Eastman, Gordon Getty, Julia Perry, Dafnis Prieto, Errollyn Wallen and more. We are eager to share their music with you.
For Renewing Subscribers: NWS will be operating at a reduced seating capacity for performances at both the New World Center and Adrienne Arsht Center. This may result in a temporary change to your seating location. We will make every effort to minimize any changes and apologize in advance for any inconvenience. Final seat locations will be confirmed by September 1, 2021.
Please note: Subscriptions to NWS’s 2021-22 season are currently only available to renewing subscribers. To join the waitlist for new subscriptions, please email tickets@nws.edu with your request. Doing so does not guarantee NWS will accommodate your request, but you will be the first to know if there is availability. Waitlist requests do not require payment until you confirm your order with a Box Office representative.
