Trans-Siberian Orchestra: The Lost Christmas Eve
The Banks
Dec 6 | 2PM
The multi-platinum Trans-Siberian Orchestra (TSO) embarks on a monumental tour this November, kicking off on the 13th. This year marks a triple celebration: 20 years of their beloved rock opera "THE LOST CHRISTMAS EVE," reaching their 20 millionth concertgoer, and surpassing a phenomenal $20 million donated to charity. WARM 98, Q102, B-105, MIX 94.9 & Live Nation are proud to welcome TSO when they return to Cincinnati for two spectacular shows on Friday, December 6 at 3:00pm and 7:30pm at Heritage Bank Center. Tickets for both shows go on sale Friday, September 13th 10am at www.ticketmaster.com and the arena Box Office with a portion of the proceeds benefiting The Dragonfly Foundation, The Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Cincinnati, New Path Child & Family Solutions and Toys For Tots. Beginning with the public on sale, a limited number of specially priced $49.99* tickets will be available for one week or while supplies last. TSO remains true to the vision of their late founder, Paul O’Neill, by being one of rock's most generous bands. This year, the band will surpass a staggering $20 million donated to charity, a testament to their ongoing commitment to philanthropy. This generosity is fueled by their tradition of donating at least $1 from every ticket sold. That means with their 20 millionth fan attending a show on this tour, TSO will be hitting not just a concert attendance record, but a charitable milestone as well. TSO's music director and lead guitarist, Al Pitrelli said, “When I was working on Lost Christmas Eve with Paul O'Neill, we talked a lot about time. He said that losing money or things wasn't as bad as losing time. Material losses can be recovered, but you can never get time back. That's why he always thought it was never too late to change. Never too late for forgiveness. People can make things right, forgive each other, and reconnect. The Lost Christmas Eve is about that hope: it's never too late for any of us." This year's tour marks the grand return of "THE LOST CHRISTMAS EVE" to the stage for the first time since 2013. Expect an all-new, dazzling spectacle packed with pyrotechnics, lasers, and the incredible storytelling synonymous with TSO. The celebration continues with a high-energy second set featuring the group's greatest hits and fan favorites.Address: Heritage Bank Center , Cincinnati OH 45202

Barbara Probst: Subjective Evidence
The Banks
Sept. 27-Feb. 9
Barbara Probst is a German photographer living between Munich and New York. In 2000, she began taking multiple images of actors in a single scene, shot simultaneously with several cameras via a radio-controlled system. The resulting series convey a complex, playful, and darkly cinematic vision of people in time and space. Probst’s works span photographic genres: landscape, still life, fashion, portraiture, and street photography. Her multi-perspective approach results in quasi-three-dimensional views of her subjects while activating philosophical problems around the question of optical authority: what is visual truth when multiple perspectives are in play? Does more visual data result in greater realism, or less? Subjective Evidence is the first American survey of Probst’s 25-year career. The exhibition opened first at the Kunstmuseum Luzern, in Lucerne, Switzerland, and will travel to the Sprengel Museum in Hannover in December 2024. A full-color catalogue, published by Hartmann Books, accompanies the exhibition, and includes essays by the three institutional curators, Fanni Fetzer, Kevin Moore, and Stefan Gronert.Address: Contemporary Art Center, Cincinnati OH 45202
