The University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music (CCM) has unveiled its lineup of can't-miss spring events for 2026, with tickets now ripe for the picking. Whether you’re into the thrills of theatre, the harmony of orchestras, or the spirited beats of jazz, CCM’s offerings have something to stoke everyone’s fire. While CCM might be across the country, the vibrancy of its artistic expressions has a way of reaching far and wide.

With an assemblage that ranges from stage classics to boundary-pushing compositions, CCM’s schedule is detailed extensively on its website. For those who prefer human interaction to digital transactions, the CCM Box Office is awaiting patron visits or calls at 513-556-4183. And if you're a patron of planning, pre-paid parking can be snagged alongside your ticket purchase, nailing down one more detail for a smooth show-going experience.

The spring roster includes 'ROPE' – an unsettling mystery thriller that'll have attendees on the edge of their seats, with performances set to take place in February. If instrumental feats are more your speed, the 'OLD SONGS REMEMBERED' concert features the CCM Wind Symphony and the CCM Youth Wind Ensemble, not to mention a slate of alumni guest artists, in an evening that bridges nostalgic tunes with contemporary mastery. And let's not overlook 'SWEENEY TODD' coming in April, where the combined talent of CCM's Musical Theatre, Opera programs, and CCM Philharmonia will flesh out the macabre tale of the Demon Barber of Fleet Street.

For those who find solace in choral beauty, 'HOLD ON' will whisk listeners through a celebration of African American spirituals at St. Timothy's Episcopal Church. Meanwhile, jazzy interpretations of the Rolling Stones' catalog will give classic rock a new groove in 'WILD HORSES: THE MUSIC OF THE ROLLING STONES'. And if percussion is your jam, the 'WORLD MUSIC CONCERT' with the CCM Steel Drum Band and Percussion Ensemble will serve up rhythms that are sure to entice both the feet and the soul.
