In September 2022, we recorded our 6th interactive television show: Discover Saint-Saëns’ “Organ” Symphony, featuring George Marriner Maull and ninety-one musicians of The Discovery Orchestra. Members of local PBS stations may stream Discover Saint-Saëns’ “Organ” Symphony  24/7 on PBS Passport, rent or buy on Amazon Prime Video, or check your local American Public Television broadcast schedule.

Discover Saint-Saëns’ “Organ” Symphony, an aural journey through the Finale of French composer Camille Saint-Saëns’ tour de force Symphony No. 3, had its television premiere on Saturday, April 22, 2023 at 11:00am.

The one-hour program, hosted by The Discovery Orchestra Founder and Artistic Director George Marriner Maull, is distributed nationally by American Public Television (APT) on May 1, 2023 for broadcast on U.S. public television stations (check local listings).

The interactive special features the 91-piece symphony orchestra and Plainfield, New Jersey-based organist Mark Miller. Peter Winograd of West Nyack, New York, serves as concertmaster. Viewers will be able to gain a better understanding of the “Organ” Symphony Finale by engaging with Maestro Maull’s insights and questions on aspects such as tempo, instrumentation and other musical elements, in order to learn how to “listen better” — which is the guiding mission of the orchestra.

The Discovery Orchestra is proud to share that Discover Saint-Saëns’ “Organ” Symphony has been selected as a winner in the 44th Annual Telly Awards! It was announced on May 23 that our latest television show is a Bronze Telly Winner in the Television – Cultural category.
