Season 100 for GBSO, and the return of Warren Gerds

A familiar name in a new role is previewing the 100th season of the Green Bay Symphony Orchestra, headquartered at the Weidner Center. Longtime Green Bay Press-Gazette critic-at-large Warren Gerds is now in a similar role at WFRV, Channel 5, and he covered the GBSO’s new season in a recent report. In it, Gerds makes note of the GBSO’s connection to UW-Green Bay and founding Chancellor Edward Weidner, and talks about the orchestra’s milestone anniversary. As you may recall, the GBSO moved its administrative offices to the Weidner Center last summer, a logical logistical move that also represented a key step in the Weidner’s revitalization plan (one element of which calls for closer collaboration with community and other arts groups). The GBSO’s milestone 100th season kicks off Saturday, Oct. 12 with “Octoberfest!” For Gerds’ report and to view the complete season, click the links below:
