FORT MYERS, Fla. - s4story -- Internationally-acclaimed violinist Itzhak Perlman will once again headline the five concerts planned for 2022 by the Fort Myers Community Concert Association.

Tickets are now on sale for the five-performance season, which organizers say bring the best in classical ballet, symphony and big brass performances to Southwest Florida.  All performances will be at the Barbara B. Mann Hall on the Florida SouthWestern State College campus in Fort Myers.

"We are so happy to be back for 2022 after canceling our 2021 season due to the pandemic," said Community Concert Association President Mary Lee Mann.  "Community Concert Association members and guests will love seeing Itzhak Perlman again as well as our other artists from around the world."

All five concerts are included in one ticket price, which ranges from $165 for prime orchestra and mezzanine seats to $155 for other orchestra and mezzanine seats, $85 for lower balcony seating and just $65 for upper balcony.  Most $165 orchestra seating already is sold out, Mann said.
