PITTSBURGH —

The Grammy-winning musicians of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra invite you to visit Heinz Hall over the holidays.

Pittsburgh’s Action News 4 recently got a behind-the-scenes look at the decorating and rehearsal preparations.

Maestro and music director Manfred Honeck helped decorate the Heinz Hall tree, which is a live tree from Armstrong County and the tallest indoor Christmas tree in the city of Pittsburgh.

Heinz Hall is open to the public most business hours, so anyone is welcome to come in and see all the holiday decorations. During performances, visitors can purchase this year’s Christmas ornaments, including one made by the Wendell August Forge.

Over Thanksgiving weekend, the PSO welcomes Himari, a 14-year-old violin phenom. The symphony will also play a preview of their performance at New York City’s Heinz Hall.

“Then we really swing into the holiday season with ‘Messiah,’ and Holiday Brass, and Highmark Holiday Pops, Trisha Yearwood. I mean, it keeps going and going,” Pittsburgh Symphony CEO Melia Tourangeau said.

If has been a while since your last concert, Honeck encourages you to enjoy the symphony again.

“Come back to the Heinz Hall. You will hear extraordinary music, extraordinary musicians. You will hear the best of best,” Honeck said.
