Blue Man Group, Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestras Parter for Second Collaborative Performance, Tonight
Blue Man Group, in conjunction with the Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestras (CYSO), will return to the Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park for a collaborative performance tonight, July 1 at 6:30 p.m. The free public performance will feature a program of full orchestral works performed by CYSO's inaugural summer orchestra, as well as collaborative performances and thrilling surprises with Blue Man Group.
"Last year's concert was great and this year's will be bigger and better," says CYSO Music Director Allen Tinkham. "The partnership between Blue Man Group and CYSO brings a highly entertaining and innovative spin to a classical music performance that our musicians relish and audiences won't want to miss."At the July 1 event, Blue Man Group and CYSO will unite for a medley of classical favorites by Amilcare Ponchielli, Franz von Suppé and Richard Wagner. CYSO is also scheduled to perform three full length classical works: Sergei Rachmaninoff's "Symphonic Dances," op. 45, Dmitri Kabalevsky's "Colas Breugnon," op. 24: Overture and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's "Capriccio Italien," op. 45.
