Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, Classical Mystery Tour Perform The Beatles' 'Sgt. Pepper' Album At Heinz Hall

Celebrate 50 years of the groundbreaking Beatles album, "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band," with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra and Classical Mystery Tour on Friday, July 21 at 8 p.m. at Heinz Hall.

This concert, led by Assistant Conductor Andrés Franco, offers many Beatles fans an opportunity that they may never have had - to experience the classic songs of John, Paul, George and Ringo live! The first half of the concert will feature the "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" album performed in its entirety and the second half will showcase the Beatles' greatest hits, such as "Come Together," "Imagine," "Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da" and many others!

The four musicians of Classical Mystery Tour - Jim Owen, Tom Teeley, Tony Kishman and Chris Camilleri -look and sound just like The Beatles, but Classical Mystery Tour is more than just a rock concert. The Beatles tunes have been transcribed note-for-note and are performed exactly as they were originally recorded but are enriched with live trumpet sections, string quartets, orchestral crescendos and more provided by the Pittsburgh Symphony.

Tickets, ranging from $29 to $69, are available at the Heinz Hall Box Office, via phone at 412-392-4900 or online at pittsburghsymphony.org/summer.
