The Nutcracker & Sorcerer’s Apprentice

Courtney Lewis leads the Jacksonville Symphony in a program of vivid imagination and timeless beauty. Dukas’s playful The Sorcerer’s Apprentice opens with enchantment and creative energy, followed by Debussy’s dreamlike Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun. Ravel’s Shéhérazade enchants with exotic melodies and lush vocal artistry, while Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker brings the festive season to life with its iconic, whimsical charm. The evening closes with Debussy’s La mer, an atmospheric masterpiece that evokes the majesty and mystery of the sea.

For your convenience, the ARIAS bus will pick up passengers at two locations in Nassau County—AMC Theatre in Yulee leaving at 5:30pm and Harris Teeter on Amelia Island leaving at 6:00pm — and transport them directly to Jacoby Hall in time for the concert. The return trip is equally hassle-free, so you won’t have to worry about driving home at night.

Bus tickets can be purchased at ariasnassau.org/bus, where you’ll also find details on pricing, pick-up locations, and discounts for ARIAS members. Please note that bus tickets are separate from concert tickets, which can be obtained through the Jacksonville Symphony website.
