An American Tradition Continues

What could be more American than an evening concert in the park? Visions of gazebos, lively music wafting through the soft summer air and special moments shared with family and friends all come to mind.

Outdoor summer concerts truly are an American institution, and the Ridgefield Symphony Orchestra is proud to uphold this time-honored seasonal tradition as the RSO Brass Quintet performs on Friday, July 24th, 6:30 pm, at Lasdon Park, 2610 Amawalk Road (Route 35) in Katonah.

Performing a potpourri of light classical and popular favorites, the RSO Brass Quintet’s program will be sure to please all musical tastes. Led by Principal Trumpet John Charles Thomas, member of the Grammy winning Chestnut Brass, the five members of the quintet have performed internationally with some of the world’s great orchestras as well as in the “pit” for numerous Broadway shows.

Admission to the concert is only $5.00; beer, wine, food, varied snacks and ice cream will be available throughout the evening. Gates open at 5:30 pm; bring your blanket, lawn chairs, or grab a table around the patio. Kick back, relax and enjoy world-class music by our very own musicians of the RSO!

Please note that there is no rain date. The concert will be cancelled in the event of inclement weather. For updated information on weather cancellations, visit the Lasdon Park website at www.lasdonpark.org or call 914-864-7268.

Join us in an enduring American tradition- the summertime park concert- on July 24th! An evening of great music, and great times, is promised for all!
