The premier orchestra of the USC School of Music, the USC Symphony Orchestra, with university choirs and renowned guest artists present masterpieces by three great Romantic composers on December 4.

Having recently made her London debut as Brünnhilde, American soprano, Kelly Cae Hogan is attracting international attention for her dramatic portrayals in Wagner, Strauss, Verdi and Puccini. Hogan sang Brünnhilde in Wagner’s Ring Cycle (Der Ring des Nibelungen) for Opera North at the Royal Festival Hall in London, as well as on tour in other UK cities.
Violinist William Terwilliger has enjoyed an exceptionally active and diverse career as a soloist, recitalist, chamber musician, orchestral musician and teacher. As soloist with orchestra, Terwilliger has performed with orchestras on five continents and is currently concertmaster of the Long Bay Symphony in South Carolina.
