Tulare County Symphony Starts New Season Inspired By Folk Songs

KVPR | By Joe Moore
Published October 11, 2016 at 11:08 AM PDT

This year the Tulare County Symphony is presenting a season inspired by folk songs and folk traditions from all over the world. The first concert of the season at the historic Visalia Fox Theatre is Saturday, and features music by composers Aaron Copland and Edgar Meyer. The concert is also an opportunity to hear the orchestra perform with its new orchestra shell which promises better acoustics for musicians and listeners alike. Conductor Bruce Kiesling joins us on Valley Edition to talk about the upcoming concert and the rest of the 2016/2017 season.
