Tweetheart NYC Tickets

Sympho's TWEETHEART concert explores the idea of love in its many and varied forms. Through the course of an evening, the audience takes a musical journey through an entire life of loves: from young teenage love to the love of a mother for her child, from God's love to the loss of a loved one. Tweetheart is eclectic yet organically connected, using music from many different times, places, and cultures.

In a collaborative spirit, Sympho teams up with multimedia dream team Aytia|Matia, as well as a group of stellar instrumentalists and singers, to present the premiere of Tweetheart. Composers Wynne Bennett, Paul Fowler, Paul Haas, and Grayson Sanders join the team to sculpt the flow of the event. Singer-songwriter Jonathan Coulton and Haitian pop star Emeline Michel will perform cameos.

Sympho's fan base has an active role in programming Tweetheart, having already sent in suggestions for love songs via Facebook and Twitter contests. The winning entries will be announced and performed at the concert.
