Enjoy a fun-filled afternoon on Sunday, May 7, at 3 p.m. for the SLSO Family Concert: Powell Hall Playlist!
It’s those special pieces of music that, much like a time machine, spark our memories and transport us into the past. We each have a unique soundtrack that underscores our lives. In this concert, we’ll travel through some of our favorite Powell Hall memories with music from The Sound of Music, The Nutcracker, and Beethoven’s famous Fifth Symphony. Powell Hall Playlist will inspire you to share your own playlist with your family.
