Concerts vary in length but usually range from 100-120 minutes including intermission. Most concerts open with an overture or other shorter work about 10 minutes or so in length. Usually that is followed by a concerto with a soloist for another 20-30 minutes; next comes a 20 minute intermission. The second half of the concert is often a full 40-60 minute symphony. This isn’t always the format; some of our concerts have multiple shorter pieces and no long symphony at all.
