It's been too long. We are so excited to be BACK at Symphony Center tonight, Monday September 20th. NEW FOLK starts at 7:30pm, and here's what to expect:

Chicago Sinfonietta’s 34th season opens with a concert that will remind you why there is no substitution for live music. The rhythmic spontaneity and seductive expression of Franz Liszt’s Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 opens the concert, followed by violinist Tessa Lark’s compelling energy in Michael Torke’s SKY, a fusion inspired by Irish reel and American bluegrass. The evening closes with American composer William Dawson’s Negro Folk Symphony, a Chicago Sinfonietta signature piece full of emotion and cinematic drama.

It's an amazing concert, and we highly suggest you bring a friend! Get $5 tickets using code PWYC5FOLK at checkout! 

And don't forget your vaccination card or proof of negative test. You can view the full guidelines here.

See you soon!
