For one night only, the YOSA Philharmonic celebrates the legendary music of Billy Joel. Backed by a full orchestra, some of San Antonio’s finest pop vocalists bring new symphonic color to the iconic songs of the Piano Man. Sing along to beloved classics like “Uptown Girl,” “Vienna,” “Piano Man,” “Just the Way You Are,” “We Didn’t Start the Fire,” and many more in a memorable night celebrating one of America’s greatest songwriters.
Billy Joel is one of the most enduring and influential American songwriters of the past 50 years. With more than 160 million records sold worldwide, multiple Grammy Awards, and induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, his career spans decades of chart-topping albums and songs. Blending pop, rock, and classical piano traditions, Joel’s music tells vivid, relatable stories that have become part of the American soundtrack, making his work a powerful fit for orchestral reimagining.
Youth Orchestras of San Antonio continues its Classic Albums Live series with this performance, reinventing classic rock and pop songs with orchestral accompaniment, following past celebrations of Prince, Queen, the Beatles, and Selena. Don’t miss this rare chance to experience Billy Joel’s beloved masterpieces in a whole new way with the YOSA Philharmonic!
