Grant Park Symphony-- Saturday Night-- recommended

I saw this program tonight. Very nice!

Will probably be crowded. Get there at least 30 minutes early if you want a shot at lawn space or pavillion seats.

Spanish Guitar and Alondra de la Parra

One of the world’s rising young conductors makes her Grant Park debut with a masterpiece of Spanish classical guitar, featuring soloist David Russell, plus Dvořák's renowned symphony.

Wow! That does sound like a good program. Wish I could join you. Too much outdoor work today, plus too much on the schedule in the next 4 days. Hopefully I can come next time.
