The New Jersey Symphony Orchestra salutes legendary composer Leonard Bernstein with some of his most iconic music—the Overture to Candide opens the program with flair, and West Side Story Symphonic Dances culls the musical’s most intoxicating rhythms and melodies. Gifted pianist Benjamin Hochman explores the classical and jazz fusion of George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, led by the talented, dynamic conductor Gerald Steichen.

Proceeds from the Concert support the UJA of MetroWest NJ Annual Campaign.

The Annual UJA Benefit Concert is an event of beautiful music, community celebration, and philanthropic spirit. Proceeds from this extraordinary evening go to United Jewish Appeal (UJA) to support the MetroWest Community.
