Out of an abundance of caution related to the COVID-19 omicron surge, the BSO has decided to cancel the “Travelers and Tales” concert scheduled for February 27, 2022.
The BSO will feature music that displays the power of the written and spoken word. After opening up with Ludwig van Beethoven’s Egmont Overture, based on the tragedy by Goethe, we’ll perform Maurice Ravel’s Tzigane with violinist Yu Chia Hsu, winner of the MNSOTA Mary West Solo Competition. We will round out our program with one of the most famous musical expressions of travel, An American in Paris by George Gershwin.
